New Smiles app allows you to issue airline tickets with miles on your iPhone

At a time when performing “computer” tasks on the smartphone is already seen as a common thing for most of us, encountering something difficult or even impossible to do on our beloved mobile devices is frustrating, to say the least. Airlines and their frequent flyer programs have always had a share of blame for these frustrations, with buggy sites, weak or non-existent apps, and bad experiences in general.


Starting this week, the Smiles promises to exterminate at least part of these frustrations with the launch of its new app, already available on the App Store and Google Play. In the app, you can join the club, as well as log in with your Smiles account to check your balance, redeem miles, track booked tickets and, for the first time on mobile devices, issue air tickets with miles or miles + money all within the app itself .

I did a brief test of the application on iOS and Android and I can say that, on both platforms, the user's experience is (with the pun term) miles in front of any other mobile website or mileage program app. Considering that Smiles serves a range of airline companies in the world including our beloved Gol, Aerolneas Argentinas, Delta, Air France, KLM, TAP, Copa Airlines, among others, quite a breakthrough for the more technological travelers. Let competition take an example!
