“Domestic customers electing to receive their boarding pass on their mobile phone or portable device can have a paperless experience, from booking, to check-in to boarding. Customers with baggage can proceed directly to the bag drop facilities before heading straight to their flight,” Qantas Executive General Manager, Mr John Borghetti said.

Mr Borghetti said these technological enhancements formed part of a broader mobile strategy for Qantas, giving customers access to information and services via portable devices. “As part of this strategy, Qantas is working to ensure all services are available for customers with the iPhone 3G,” he said.
