“My Flightpath” launched by British Airways !

Today, technology is everywhere, even in the sky !

A new online tool has been launched by the airline company British Airways: « My Flightpath ».  The company wanted to create a new tool, which will offer fun and interactivity to its customers.
This new application will allow passengers to make their personal blog about their own travels. The condition is to be a member of the British Airways Executive Club. But the good news is that each passenger can become a member of this club without extra charge, only by booking flights with this company.

Principle:
This website will be presented as a timeline (like the famous social network Facebook) with the various data presented through charts and graphs. 
On this page, passengers will record all their flights and the different destinations they went to and visited; which at the end will allow them to enjoy their personal travel map. It will be like a private logbook. Furthermore, they will also be able to check the number of miles they collected being member of British Airways Executive Club.

Furthermore, another function will be available on this website: “My Passport”. Through this platform, British Airlines will offer stamps to its customers, according to the number of miles obtained at each flight by them.
In order to create interactivity and favour networking, passengers will also have the possibility to share information and opinion on different social networks such as Twitter and Facebook.

The objective of this online tool is to give the opportunity to all passengers to enjoy their flights and follow their travels, but also to make the flight attractive and encourage people to continue to travel with this company.

Testimony of the director of customer engagement Ian Romanis:  “We wanted to give customers something that would help them to capture the magic of flying and we’re sure they will enjoy sharing their travelling milestones with their friends.”



We decided to talk about this new feature because we think that it is a good way of differentiation for British Airways. It will also improve customer experience and it represents a real added value for the relationships between the company and its customers.
