If you’ve got a flight coming up with Jetstar Airways, odds are that you’ll have a relatively long flight. However, instead of subjecting you to boring repeats of Friends or censored versions of your favorite Hollywood blockbusters, the airline has announced that it’s going to start renting out in-flight iPads to keep you entertained. Not only that, but Gameloft has revealed that these devices will come pre-loaded with some of its best titles.

Not only that, but Gameloft has revealed that these devices will come pre-loaded with some of its best titles.
Starting in December, five Gameloft titles will be available on the rentable iPads: Real Football, Shrek Kart, Avatar, UNO and N.O.V.A.: Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance.
Meanwhile, the following titles will become available during the first quarter of 2012: GT Racing: Motor Academy, Brain Challenge, Blokus, Iron Man 2, Let’s Golf! 2, The Settlers and Asphalt 5.
The new in-flight iPad rentals is set to begin over the next few weeks on select Jetstar flights. Initial flights with this program will include “Australian domestic, trans Tasman and short-haul international flights between Australia and New Zealand.” Passengers on flights longer than two hours will be able to rent iPads for somewhere between A$10 and A$15.
