Users of the mini-application will be able not only to buy tickets, but also compare prices and clarify transport rules. In the future, it is planned to add automatic notifications: they will notify about the start of boarding and remind about the opening of online registration, the S7 press service told RIA Novosti.
When making the reservation, the passenger enters their personal data on a secure page, so the user’s information is securely encrypted, an airline representative emphasized in conversation with CNews.
The mini-application also includes “Hotels”, “Excursions”, “Apartments” and “Transfer” sections, but in them the user is redirected from the chatbot to the websites of the corresponding services.
In December, S7 launched flights from Irkutsk to China. Flights operate twice a week, to Shanghai on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and to Guangzhou on Tuesdays and Sundays.
