TROY, Mich. — Automated ordering systems provider Nextep Systems has partnered with food and beverage operator OTG Management to deploy "re:vive," an innovative dinning program at JetBlue's new Terminal 5 at JFK airport in New York. The program features 16-seat clusters in front of about half of the terminal's 26 gates. The clusters feature electric outlets for recharging laptops and cellphones and touchscreen monitors that display flight information and a food/beverage menu. Customers can order food, pay with a credit card and have it delivered to the gate area. Read also, Here's a concept: Civilized dining at the airport.
