Apple Originals are free to view on flights. Well, free aside from the cost of actually flying that is!

American Airlines has come to an agreement with Apple to show Apple TV+ shows on its flights.
The agreement, which started this month, means that seat-back entertainment systems come preloaded with Apple Originals. These include The Morning Show, For All Mankind, Dickinson, Defending Jacob, and seven more.
The exact lineup of Apple TV+ shows varies according to American Airlines flight. Not every episode of every show is available, either. However, if a small number of customers is inspired to seek out an Apple TV+ subscription after getting hooked on, say, Mythic Quest after watching it on a flight that could be good news for Apple.
This isn’t the first time American Airlines has partnered with Apple. In early 2019, American Airlines began offering Apple Music to customers on domestic flights without them having to buy Wi-Fi to listen. Unlike the Apple TV+ agreement, however, in order to listen to Apple Music flyers had to be existing subscribers to the service. By comparison, the Apple Originals are available to view regardless of whether the viewer subscribes to Apple TV+.
Before this, American Airlines was an early airline to drop its heavy pilots’ flight manuals for iPads.
