    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Some major US airport terminals like JFK now have options for ordering food for delivery to your gate, Bloomberg reports.

    Instead, QR codes scattered at venues will connect users to ordering pages for the desired food.

    Order-ahead options are also coming in September, which will let travelers order items like iced lattes for pickup at coffee shops at their destination airport from a mile in the sky.

    The company could also save money on on-site maintenance, installation, iPad upgrades, mobile device management subscriptions, security costs, and more.

    Although, fewer ordering options may inconvenience some customers, especially those who’d prefer to tap dedicated screens near where they can smell the cuisine they crave.

    OTG currently manages food offerings at 350 venues and 23 terminals at airports including JFK, Chicago O’Hare, Newark Liberty, LaGuardia, and the Philadelphia International Airport.
