Travelers are increasingly relying on mobile products and
services to navigate their way through cities and airports around the world.
Traditional paper tickets and formal travel documents have fallen way to

buttons on their smartphones. From location-based contextually-aware travel
services to complex policy-based e-commerce, content isn’t simply merging into
new platforms, but evolving to be more relevant, timely and personal.
