It'll add 500GB for just $99, plus you can then share that with others. Upsides are easier loading of content (loading your own content onto an iPad can be a pain), and of course way more storage space. Add a $20 Anker battery pack, and you'll be good to go for the entire flight.
I love your idea. The OP can find a very inexpensive IPAD or IPAD mini (used if he wants_, and he can go as low as 16GB or 32 and still have a ton of content with him. Plus no uploading to the tablet etc.
