The problem is that with AVOD on flights, few people carry a book or other available reading material with them. If passengers were notified at OLCI that the aircraft would not have operational AVOD, customers could plan accordingly. Even if the announcement were made in the airport, in most places, people could quickly buy something airside, even if the book or magazine might not be their first choice.
