TRAVELSTART has
launched Flapp for iOS
and Android – “a two
tap booking app” for flights
between Johannesburg and
Cape Town.
“The local airline industry is
seeing a shift in power back
into the hands of travellers.
Flapp is a direct response
to this evolution,” says
spokesman, Russell Jarvis.
The app is secure and
easy to use, and has been
designed to satisfy the
individual needs of a specific
group of travellers who fly
the Johannesburg-Cape
Town route regularly.
“Real-time fares from all
airlines are the first thing
visible when tapping on the
Flapp app. Results can be
filtered by either price or
departure time and a user’s
credit card details can be
saved,” says Travelstart head
of innovation, Sergio Mello.
He adds that same-day
bookings (up to two hours
before a flight departs) are
also available.
Booking patterns have
shown that in the last year,
43% of passengers between
Johannesburg and Cape Town
have booked their flights less
than a week before departure,
while more than 90% paid
for their booking with a credit
card.
Flapp offers a seven-day
window of fares bookable
for the week ahead. This
lightweight design reduces
app load time and data costs
of the end user.
“The app is secure and
makes the check-out process
fast,” says Sergio.
The app is available for free
download from the Google
Play Store and Apple App
Store
