Travelocity has announced a new service for mobile phones and web-enabled devices that will allows users to access a variety of travel information. It will be possible to book transport and hotels, view current itineraries and also receive up-to-date information on flight status and security updates.
Travelocity have included other tools such as a currency converter, city guides and destination information, as well as local weather reports, in the hope that the service will become a hit with city break tourists.
Travelocity Chief Marketing Officer Jeffrey Glueck said: "As the technology for hand-held devices has advanced, more and more people have traded in their traditional cell phones for gadgets such as smart phones and PDAs. Whether it's changing a flight or adding a rental car to their booking, mobile.travelocity.com gives travellers options for managing their trip while they're on-the-go."
The launch of the upgrades mobile service furthers Travelocity’s ongoing commitment to being the customer’s champion – before, during and after their trip. Travelocity operates one of the leading European online travel companies through its European brand, lastminute.com.
