New and Improved for 2012 – The World Routes Smartphone App

The Routes team is delighted to introduce the new and improved smartphone app for World Routes in Abu Dhabi. The App will be available to download via Routesonline and also on the Android market and iTunes store in around two week’s time.

After listening to feedback from delegates after the inaugural app was launched last year in Berlin, the Routes team have been hard at work trying to develop an improved app for use during the event. Key areas of focus for this development have included the Event Programme area, the Delegate Listings area and Meeting Diary access.

This year’s app will also include a message wall facility, a ‘notification’ functionality so you can keep abreast of the latest developments at World Routes and will also be personalised and security protected so all users will have to put in their personal registration code which will then have to be verified against their email address so that they can view their diaries. Please note: only final diaries will be able to be accessed through the App.

From your smartphone touch screen you can also find all the latest event news from our HUB Daily Newsletter, the location of your company targets and find out what’s going on when at the largest gathering of airlines, airports and aviation stakeholders in the world.

Including;

  • Personal Diary Access – view your final diary
  • Delegate Listings – search for who you’re looking to meet
  • Exhibitor Locations and Guide – who’s exhibiting, where and their activities
  • Airline Tables - please access this through the 'Delegates' section
  • Floorplan – to help guide you through the event
  • Event Programme – what’s going on when
  • The HUB news - all the latest breaking news from the event
  • City Guide – as recommended by the host and Routes teams
  • Social Media Links – see what Twitter and Facebook contacts are talking about at the event
  • Preferred Hotel details – including maps, phone numbers and other essential information.


The World Routes Smartphone app is available as a sponsorship item so if you are interested in sponsoring this, or any other items, please contact Mark Gray for full details of the package. The Routes app will be available to download on Android, iPhone and Blackberry devices from 17th September.
