Some of these survey findings are self-serving on part of APEX and CEA, who want the current in-flight digital device rules to be changed for more usage. For us, only 4-in-10 passengers wanting these rules to be changed is interesting, and needs some deeper digging on consumer attitudes.

As a first-mover, HotelTonight is in an enviable position. The company faces competition from imitators, including big brands, but there absolutely will be more than one winner in the same-day booking sector. There is a whole big world out there.
