iPhone apps developed for Kuoni Scandinavia

These past months Smiling Plants has designed and developed iPhone apps for Kuoni Scandinavia's leisure travel brands Apollo (Swedish website) and Falk Lauritsen containing their last minute travel offers. Kuoni Scandinavia is a part of the Kuoni Travel group — one of the major players in the international travel industry. Their brands Apollo and Falk Lauritsen are two of the most popular leisure travel companies in Scandinavia.

The apps are designed around the user choosing their departure airport to see available last minute offers. By utilizing the iPhone’s built in location services, it's also possible to sort the list based on distance to the airports.

When an airport has been chosen, all last minute offers are displayed listed by departure date, and if the user wants to find their dream trip, there’s an easy to use search bar. The user can also sort by best price, destination and more. Tapping an offer let’s the user book their trip without efforts directly in the iPhone’s built in Safari web browser.

The Apollo Norway app has been the 22nd most downloaded free app in the Norwegian App Store, and the apps for the other countries also reached top positions in the Travel category in their respective countries. The apps were covered both in social media and traditional press.

The apps are available on the App Store:
