easyJet to offer live aircraft tracking with Flightradar24
Published by Irhal
The feature is the result of a purpose built Software Development Kit that was specially created for easyJet by Flightradar24 and uses GPS information that is sent from easyJet’s 240+ aircraft. The flight tracking software, which went live on the app this morning, will show the aircraft’s route, speed, type of aircraft, altitude, distance travelled and total distance to destination.
James Millett, easyJet head of digital, said: “We’re delighted to have launched live location-based flight tracking to our award winning app. More than 800,000 customers use our app every week to make travelling across our network of more than 780 routes even easier - it’s fast becoming the essential travel companion for Generation easyJet.”
In addition to the new feature, easyJet have added 3D Touch functionality to its app, meaning users of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus can benefit from getting to four key app areas even quicker. It is available to download now on the App Store.
