DOHA: Qatar Airways has launched a new mobile application for BlackBerry, Android, iPhone handsets and introduced a new mobile website.

Through ease and convenience of using their mobile devices, customers can search for and book flights, check their flight status and follow travel alerts. In addition, members of the airline’s Privilege Card frequent flyer programme can fast-track their bookings by logging in with their membership number. 

The new line of services being offered is part of the Doha-based carrier’s commitment to continue providing customers with a Five- Star service with added value benefits. Customers can download the application at qatarairways.com/mobile and follow the links to the iPhone, BlackBerry or Android smartphone app store. 

In addition, the mobile website can be accessed by entering qatarairways.com directly into the browser of any smartphone or tablet. 

Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said: “We are continually looking for ways to bring new and exciting services to our customers. 

“Mobility is high on the list of our customers to have access to important travel and flight information when and where they want it, so we have now given them a new service that meets that demand. As our customers’ needs evolve, so will the services and products that we offer.”
