Link: SMS and email travel alert service for Star Alliance travellers

A new SMS and email service will allow Star Alliance customers to keep track of the flights of any of the group’s 17 member airlines.

The alliance is a group of leading airlines which allows customers to benefit from shared frequent flyer miles, airport lounges and more.

Now the group is working with mobile transaction network mBlox to deliver a flight status alert service that is available at www.staralerts.oag.com.

Very useful when it’s snowing!
