United Airlines Launches Japanese Mobile App (en.traicy.com)

United Airlines launched a Japanese-language version of its mobile app on October 15, its first major U.S. airline to offer a fully Japanese version. The app supports flight search, booking, check-in, boarding passes, baggage tracking, connection guidance, and payments in Japanese yen, the first currency outside North America to be supported. Japan is United's second-largest MileagePlus market outside the United States, and the app was previously available only in English and Spanish.
