Qatar
Airways has placed the ease and convenience of travelling with the
airline right in the palm of the customer’s hand – literally!
With
such busy lives, customers need to be connected to Qatar Airways’
services as well as the latest travel information from anywhere
around the world. To meet this growing customer need, Qatar Airways
has launched a new mobile application for BlackBerry, Android, iPhone
handsets, and has introduced a new mobile website.
Through
ease and convenience of using their mobile devices, customers can
search for, and book flights, check their flight status and follow
travel alerts. In addition,
members of the airline’s Privilege Card frequent
flyer programme can fast track their booking
by logging in with their membership number.
The
new line of services being offered is part of the Doha-based
carrier’s commitment to continue providing customers with a Five
Star service with added value benefits.
Customers
can download the application at qatarairways.com/mobile and
follow the
links to the iPhone, BlackBerry or Android
smartphone app store.
In addition,
the mobile website can be accessed by entering qatarairways.com
directly into the browser of any smartphone or tablet.
Qatar
Airways Chief
Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said: “We
are continually looking for ways to bring new and exciting services
to our customers.
“Mobility
is high on the list of our customers to have access to
important travel
and flight information
when and where they want it, so we have now given them a new service
that meets that demand. As our customers’ needs evolve, so will the
services and products that we offer.”
One
of the world’s fastest growing airlines, Qatar Airways has seen
rapid growth in just 16 years of operations, currently flying a
modern fleet of 119 aircraft to 124 key business and leisure
destinations across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific and The
Americas.
Over
the next few weeks, Qatar Airways will launch services to a diverse
portfolio of new routes, including Phnom Penh, Cambodia (February
20); Chengdu, China (March 19); Chicago, USA (April 10); and Salalah,
Oman (May 22) with many more new start-ups planned.
