Travelport launches free mobile travel itinerary app for iPhone and Android

Travelport ViewTrip™ Mobile marks a major enhancement to the traveller experience

Travelport, the business services provider to the global travel industry, has today announced the launch of a new travel application for users of smartphones in the UK and Ireland. The new app represents the mobile debut of Travelport’s hugely successful ViewTrip online itinerary product and is one of the first, fully integrated GDS powered travel itinerary apps available.
ViewTrip Mobile delivers time critical information and other valuable tools to enable travellers to be fully aware and in control of their travel arrangements at any time. Among the useful features are:
Flight status with live flight alerts
Detailed airport  and city guides offering easy to digest information
Location aware services – find offers on local restaurants, the location of your nearest bank and much more
Weather forecasts and currency conversion
Itinerary management – easily and quickly add other items to itineraries

“We were delighted to be involved with Travelport during the testing phase of ViewTrip Mobile,” said Jackie Lacey, Managing Director of Chelsea Travel Management. “This is certainly one of the richest apps of its kind that I’ve seen in terms of content and functionality. The initial feedback from our travellers has been very positive and the product has further enhanced our online offering to clients.”
 “Mobile technology is playing an increasingly important part of a traveller’s overall experience”, commented Jason Nash, VP Product Innovation, Travelport. “We are constantly developing new products that satisfy the needs of the travel community and are thrilled with the positive impact ViewTrip mobile is already making.”
The app will be available in other countries from Q2 2012 when the phased role out continues.
ViewTrip Mobile was developed in partnership with ManticPoint, a leading provider of mobile travel services.
