OREANDA-NEWS. Aeroflot has launched a partnership with Yota Devices, the maker of the world’s first dual-screen smartphone, paving the way for broad-based collaboration between two of Russia’s business pioneers — the national flagship carrier and its only high-tech consumer electronics developer.

Aeroflot passengers can check flight information on the YotaPhone 2’s always-on second screen, and Aeroflot Bonus members can access their loyalty card. This means you no longer have to worry about not being able to retrieve information about a reservation if your phone runs out of juice, because it will always be available on the YotaPhone 2’s second screen, which works even when the battery is completely discharged.

The new features — another example of Aeroflot’s commitment to innovation and dedication to being one of Europe’s leading airlines for outstanding customer service — are available in the latest version of Aeroflot’s app for Android devices on Google Play.

Partnering with Yota is in line with Aeroflot’s strategy to promote innovation across the board, including customer service.
