On
April 9, SAS launched its new app which can be used to book trips to
all its destinations directly on a smart phone or tablet device.
SAS
customers can now easily book, check in, choose a seat on board and
receive their mobile boarding pass on their phone or device. The SAS
app has already been downloaded nearly
100,000
times and is ranked as the no 1 free app in Sweden, Denmark and
Norway.
This
is just one of the ways in which SAS is continuing to create
innovative solutions that make traveling easier for its customers.
"We
are really pleased about the positive feedback we received on the
app. It has now been downloaded nearly 100,000 times and has been
given top marks by our customers, so we are very happy," says
Christina Ericsson, VP Global Digital Sales at SAS.
The
app allows users to book and pay for flights in three easy steps,
with payment accepted in currencies such as Euros, Danish, Norwegian
and Swedish Kronor. In addition, customers can easily:
• Check
in and select a seat (available from many places)
• Receive
a mobile boarding pass (available from many places)
• View
the status of flights booked
• Pay
in full or in part using EuroBonus points
• Access
their EuroBonus account
• Change
flights
• Find
recent social media info and travel ideas
• Read
information about passenger rights
"We
will continue to have a strong focus on the development of digital
services, particularly mobile, as part of our efforts to simplify
travel for our customers," says Christina Ericsson, VP Global
Digital Sales at SAS.
The
app is available to all EuroBonus members, which is currently over
three million people. It also gives non-members the opportunity to
apply for EuroBonus membership. The app is available for both iPhone
and Android in the majority of countries to which SAS flies and can
be downloaded free from the App Store
