STOCKHOLM, Sweden and TORONTO, Canada, January 29 /PRNewswire/ --
- GuestLogix Allows Passengers on Thirty-Minute Flights to Benefit From
its On-Board Full Retail Service Capability
The Skyways Group today entered into a multi-year agreement with Canadian
company GuestLogix (TSX-V:GXI), for the provision of their Mobile Virtual
Store(TM) on-board technology, that includes wireless POS devices and
application service to assist Skyways' attendants with on-board sales
transactions and enhance Skyways' in-flight service. The deal was secured in
co-operation with Klarago AB, a Swedish airline caterer and wholly owned
subsidiary of the Compass Group Plc (LSE:CPG.L).
The new technology will be fully deployed across Skyways' aircraft by the
end of this month to allow a full buy-on-board service, even on Skyways'
short-haul flights lasting thirty minutes. The GuestLogix solution allows
Skyways to offer food, beverages and gifts and accept cash in multiple
currencies or credit card payments. GuestLogix' unique technology and
attendant interface are particularly suited for short flights which are often
difficult to fully service. During 2006, Skyways served 850,000 passengers on
18 domestic and 3 international routes.
Commenting on the deal, Klarago's Managing Director, Pontus Akesson said:
"Today's agreement will mean Skyways can secure additional profitable
revenues while elevating our on-board service. The Mobile Virtual Store(TM)
from GuestLogix enables the launch of innovative new products and services to
create a rewarding passenger experience."
Tom Douramakos, President and CEO of GuestLogix said:
"We look forward to growing Skyways' on-board retail experience through a
variety of new products and services. Passengers on short-haul flights
frequently receive less service because of time constraints. Our Mobile
Virtual Store(TM) aims to change this experience completely."
