airline magazine

Cabin pocket periodical

A magazine published by an airline for passengers, typically found in seatback pockets.

Airline magazines feature destination guides, travel tips, and lifestyle content, along with advertisements and route maps.

The term sometimes carries connotations of bland, inoffensive writing designed to pass time during flight: The article read like something from an airline magazine.
