Cathay Pacific Launches App for Blackberry PlayBook

Cathay Pacific has launched a customised airline application for the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet offering users access to a wide range of services including flight booking, check-in and information on the new Business Class product.

“We are pleased to be the first to launch an official airline application for the BlackBerry PlayBook,” said Celine Ho, Marketing Communications Manager of Cathay Pacific. “I’m sure visitors to The Cabin lounge of Cathay Pacific will enjoy the exclusive preview of the exciting features on the BlackBerry PlayBook.”

The BlackBerry PlayBook will go on sale in Hong Kong from early July but passengers visiting Cathay Pacific’s The Cabin lounge at Hong Kong International Airport can get an exclusive preview of the product, with the pre-installation of the Cathay Pacific Mobile application.

The CX Mobile application for the BlackBerry PlayBook is now available as a free download for users on BlackBerry App World. The application is currently available in English. Nine additional languages including Chinese will be added to an enhanced version in August. The enhanced content will also include offline city guides, Google maps and downloadable e-coupons for dining and shopping special offers in Hong Kong.
