United Airlines and IBM jointly developing new line of iOS apps
United Airlines said Thursday it is teaming with IBM to develop a suite of iOS apps that will help the airline's employees better meet the needs of the company's customer base. Some 50,000 United employees are already outfitted with iOS devices, including flight attendants who now use iPhones. Pilots use iPads to store crucial information, including airport maps, needed to fly and land airplanes. With new data and insight at their fingertips via the new apps being developed, flight attendants, for instance, will have greater visibility into which passengers on a particular flight are connecting to other flights. The apps also will help flight attendants advise passengers which gates they need to get to for the connecting flight. <br/>
