Apps & Software
2nd April 2014, 1 America Square, London.
Agenda for the Mobile Travel & Tourism Summit 2014 is now Live.
The Travel & Tourism sector has been one of the most enthusiastic adopters of mobile technology.
We see airlines issuing mobile boarding passes; using mobile messaging as a CRM tool to keep passengers informed about delays and cancellations; giving iPads to in-flight staff to enable them to conduct appraisals 35,000 ft. off the ground; and of course creating easy-to-use apps to enable passengers to book flights on the go.
Manchester United fans will have a chance to experience a match with their team, virtually, through a new partnership with Google+, "Front Row." Working with agency adam&eveDDB, Google+ U.K.. is offering the club's fans the chance to root for their team live at a game on Sunday, March 16, through a Google+ Hangout. Their messages of support will appear on Old Trafford stadium's digital screens, while the fans will join the 75,000 real world ticket holders as they watch from a digital "Front Row."
Fans can earn a chance to be among the first in the "Front Row" by sharing a picture showing their love for the team on Google+, tagged #MUFrontRow. Following the match on March 16, those in the Front Row will get a professional photograph of their appearance and a welcome on Manchester United's Google+ page. [more…]
