Assisting Passenger Flow

CellTrust, a provider of secure mobile messaging and applications, has launched its FlightAssist real-time flight monitoring solution at San Francisco International Airport (SFO), delivering a free service that will provide information on flight arrival times and other information to passengers and those traveling to the airport to pick up travelers. With CellTrust's FlightAssist, passengers can notify a circle of friends in real-time through text messages on a cell phone if there is a flight delay or cancellation. Real-time mobile flight monitoring and airport information management can significantly streamline passenger flow to and from the airport. Flight delays, cancellations, gate changes and flight arrivals are communicated within seconds to the recipient's mobile phone. Those picking up passengers will receive notification should there be a change while the passenger is still on board the airplane. FlightAssist helps everyone remain one step ahead and takes the guesswork, stress and endless waiting out of flying and picking up at the airport. Sean Moshir, founder and CEO of CellTrust believes "FlightAssist provides a great option for passengers; those involved in with a flight logistically; for the environment; and for the airport itself in terms of cost reduction and stakeholder satisfaction. The bottom line is: if you take care of the planet - the planet will take care of you.”
