SkyMall Declares Bankruptcy, Catalog Killed By In-Flight Internet

Posted in: Today's Chili

Legendary in-air catalog SkyMall has declared bankruptcy, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.

The catalog, once a favorite among bored airline travelers, said technology drove its demise. SkyMall’s parent company Xhibit Corp., will look to sell of the company’s assets at auction.

“With the increased use of electronic devices on planes, fewer people browsed the SkyMall in-flight catalog,” Chief Executive Scott Wiley said in court filings, according to WSJ.

SkyMall did not immediately return The Huffington Post’s request for comment.
