Air France brings new app to Apple Watch

The Air France App has launched on Apple Watch, allowing Air France customers to find useful information related to their account or their next flight, at the flick of their wrist.

Air France customers due to depart on flights within 30 hours can connect the Apple Watch to their phone, then receiving a notification inviting them to check in.

Passengers will also find useful information such as their terminal, gate and seat numbers, and even free to board their flight by scanning the pass on their watch.

Customers can also find useful information on their My Account and Flying Blue account, consult information on their next flight, and receive a notification two hours before the expiry of their mobile guarantee or their online ticket purchase option.

Air France will shortly be offering its customers additional new features, including notification of a change of departure time or boarding gate, via the watch’s vibrate function.

Today, Air France boasts five million fans on Facebook and over 700,000 followers on Twitter.

Thanks to a €60 million investment in innovative tools from the Air France-KLM group, Air France now offers fully digital airport services at its hub, Paris-Charles de Gaulle, and continues to develop the latest digital airline solutions.
