Canadian based airline saw a 30% increase in food and beverage sales after implementing LiFE’s CabX solution including Order-from-Seat capabilities.
Cabin Experience (CabX)
LiFE in the Air’s Cabin Experience is a commerce-first digital experience that turns passenger screens and personal devices into powerful revenue channels.
Built as an extension of our POS platform, the CabX enables airlines to sell more during every phase of the flight—through ordering, upgrades, advertising, marketplaces, and digital products—while keeping operational complexity low and airline control high.
Entertainment content is available as an engagement layer, but revenue generation is the core design principle.
- Integration with top accredited acquirers
- Automated inventory management
- Airline schedule, crew, and seat map integration
- Consolidated data reports
- 24/7 Support
- Processing cash & card transactions both online and offline
Commerce-First Cabin Digitization
Traditional IFE systems focus on content consumption. LiFE’s CabX focuses on conversion.
Passengers can:
- Order food and beverages anytime
- Purchase seat upgrades after the cabin door closes
- Browse offers, products, and services
- Interact with monetized content and destinations
Sell beyond the trolley service with order-from-seat
Passengers can order food and beverages before, during, or after trolley service directly from their seatback screen or personal device. Orders are sent instantly to the crew for fulfillment and synchronized with POS and inventory systems.
Order-from-Seat captures incremental demand that traditional trolley service misses—without adding cabin complexity.
Post-Departure Seat Upgrades
The CabX enables passengers to purchase better seats once the aircraft is airborne, including:
- Front-row seats
- Extra-legroom seats
- Block-next-seat options
- Multi-seat upgrades
Pricing can be dynamic and integrated with seat availability through DCS.
Proven, high-margin ancillary revenue at scale
Post-departure seat upgrades deliver consistent, high-margin revenue across fleets of all sizes—without adding operational complexity or crew workload.

Advertising & Sponsored Content

- Use their own content

- Scale content independently of commerce features
