In addition to food ordering, the OTG-installed iPads also let travelers check on flight information, including the status of the flight and the weather at your final destination. OTG also plans to include pre-loaded games and news apps for travelers to enjoy. Users will also be able to log into Facebook, Twitter, and email accounts; touching the iPad's home button when they're done removes any personal information.

The iPad stations in the hold areas will include outlets and USB ports for charging your own electronic devices. "We want to be able to give you the things you need to make the experience more enjoyable," said Albert Lee, OTG's chief technology officer.

OTG's installations include the latest iPads. And the company plans to keep it that way: When Apple comes out with a new version of its tablet, Blatstein says the company will upgrade its hardware.

OTG's initial plans may include three airports and 7000 iPads, but the sky's the limit beyond that. The company operates 150 restaurants and eateries spread out across 10 airports, and as Blatstein notes, "we're expanding." The company's iPad plans could expand too, with Blatstein expecting deployment to reach "tens of thousands of iPads" at OTG-operated locations at some point in the future.
