O2 announces pocket flight software at GITEX

Users can find out if the flight is on time, delayed, cancelled and when the expected landing time is.

This new Pocket Flight software is being offered to all O2 customers attending GITEX. Customer experience and innovation are key factors to O2's popularity in the Middle East region, and O2 reiterates its pledge by offering consumers the most convenient way to check the latest and updated flight schedules from their O2 devices.

In addition, Middle East O2 customers can download exciting themes or wallpapers to their handsets. Since its launch last week, the beautifully designed screen themes have received an overwhelming response from its global database of users, logging in hundreds of downloads within the first few hours of its launch. New themes will be introduced each week. These free screen themes are available to all PDA-phone enthusiasts on the company's website.

Mark Billington, CEO, O2 Asia Pacific & Middle East said, "At O2 we keep customer experience at the heart of everything we do. Middle East professionals are frequent travellers and therefore we have introduced the Pocket Flight software which equips them with the convenience of browsing flight timetables on their handsets - it's our way of giving our customers the information they need to save them time and operate more efficiently while on the go. It's our way of enabling better mobile experiences."

This GITEX, O2 promises its customers to stay ahead with the latest technology and maximise user experience. Customers can view and test drive cutting-edge products from O2, including its latest offerings the Xda Atom Life and the Xda Flame, and receive their free Pocket Flight software at GITEX Shopper.
