Based on an interesting survey by SITA (Société Internationale de Télécommunications Aéronautiques), Flt Tech Online reports “Survey Indicates Airline Industry Divided on Information Technology”. The study finds that some international regions are far ahead in embracing Internet and wireless technologies while others are very far behind.

SITA’s annual airline IT (information technology) trends survey indicates that “pace-setting airlines” are embracing new IP (Internet protocol) and wireless-based technologies that enable new applications, such as e-ticketing and self-service kiosks, while “a significant minority of airlines are still lagging behind.”
