MSKYNET Partnership With FlightStats

Posted by alex on December 16, 2009 in Press - (0 Comments)

FlightStats, the World leader of complete flight status information partners with MSKYNET to be the first to launch real-time flight status information using SPARQCodes (2d barcodes).  Tracking nearly 150,000 flights worldwide each day, SPARQCode technology offers a new and exciting way for FlightStats visitors to track flight status by simply taking a picture of the SPARQCode using their mobile device.  Every flight will be paired with a unique SPARQCode that stores all the information necessary for the flight status request.

To use this feature
1. Access Flightstats.com and search for your flight
2. Scan the SPARQCode on the flight details page with your mobile phone
3. View your flight status data on the go

To see how this works, view our demo SPARQCode Flight. If you need a scanner for your phone, TEXT SPARQ to 41411 (US only) or access http://sparq.me with your mobile device and we will redirect you to the best reader for your phone. We are very excited about our partnership with FlightStats and will continue to develop new ways to enhance the travel experience.
