BA APP SET TO BE A FIRST ON THE NEW APPLE WATCH

British Airways is set to be one of the first companies to have a specially developed app on the new Apple Watch when it launches on April 24.

There will be two elements to the app to make travel even easier for customers of the airline. The 'glance' screen which appears on the Apple Watch face will display a summary of their flight including the departure time, the flight status and a countdown to the departure time.

Customers will also benefit from timely check-in and airport gate notifications, and those using the lounges at Heathrow's Terminal 5 will receive iBeacon powered welcome messages. British Airways was one of the first airlines in the UK to utilise iBeacon technology in its lounges and uses it to provide customers with useful and timely information as they pass through the airport.
