Business travel: Priority Pass launches iPhone and iPad apps for Middle East

Priority Pass, an independent airport lounge program, announces the launch of an enhanced iPhone app and a brand new iPad app, which enable travellers to locate and see details of all available lounges in the program in the Middle East and worldwide.

Both apps have a ‘Find Nearest Lounge’ tool which uses GPS technology to locate the nearest lounge based on the user’s current location.

For those who prefer to plan ahead, the app allows a fast, offline search for lounges available at any airport. Plus new features mean users can add ‘Favorites’, review ‘Recent Searches’ and even view lounge images.

The app is free to download from the iTunes store. Simply search for “Priority Pass”.

“We have members throughout the Middle East, who are constantly on the move and these apps are ideal for quickly finding a bit of peace and quiet at the airport.” commented Jonathan French, Head of Brand at Priority Pass. “With 28 lounges available to member’s at all major airports in the Middle East, and more than 600 throughout the world, our new apps are ideal to have the information needed at their fingertips.”
