Njengoko abantu bathembela ngakumbi kwii-smartphone zokusebenza ukucwangcisa ukuhamba kunye neeholide, iifayile zokusebenza zokuhamba zikhokelela kwi-intanethi yeefayili zokusebenza, ngelixa iifayile ze-airline zihlehla ngasemva, ngokwemibiko entsha ye-ARC. I-ARC yinkalo yophando ye-Applause, ikhwalithi yovavanyo kunye nenkampani yokuvavanya inikezela ulwazi kunye nedatha kwizoqoqosho zokusebenza
Kule ngxelo, Ihlombe yahlalutya phantse ukuhlolwa kweevenkile zesigidi sezigidi ezili-122 ezinkulu iimpawu zokuhamba.
Ngokusekelwe kwisikali se-zero ukuya kwi-100, ii-apps zokusebenza zokuhamba ngezona zinto zihamba phambili, ngamanqaku aphakathi kwama-65, ngelixa amanqaku amanqanaba aphantsi ayenayo yeefowuni ze-airline kwi-34.
UBen Gray, umcwaningi wamajoni e-Digg at Applause, waphawula ukuba ukhuphiswano olungenangqondo phakathi kwezixhobo zokusebenza zokuhamba luye lwaba. "Kukho iiprogram ezingaphezu kwezigidi ezingama-30 zokusebenza emhlabeni wonke kwaye kukho ukukhula okukhulu kwishishini lokuhamba," watsho. I-shishini lokuhamba linamathuba amaninzi ukuphucula kunye nokuzonwabisa kwabathengi, kwaye icandelo le-airline linethuba elikhulu lokukhula.
Ngo-2015, ukuhlambalaza kuphela kwacacisa i-subset encinci yoshishino, yathi iGrey. "Lo nyaka, sandise uhambo ukuya kubandakanye izenzo ezisibhozo ezahlukahlukeneyo abahambahambayo ekuhambeni kwabo: Hlola, Hlaziya, Hlala, iNcwadi, Uhambo lwenkqantosi, iDrive, Hamba uye uhambe," watsho. "Oku kwasenza sikwazi ukubonelela ngombono ogqithiseleyo ngokusebenzisa uhambo lomthengi kwilizwe lezendalo kunye neyedijithali. "Liyithuba lemveliso ukuze ubone indlela abathengi abafumana ngayo ii-apps zabo."
I-apps zokusebenza zezoqoqosho zikhuphisana ngokukhawuleza kwaye zihlala zixhamla. Ukwenza ingqiqo yendawo, Iiflethi ezikwahlulo lwahlulo lwahlukeneyo zibe zizenzo ezisibhozo ezihambayo umhambi othabatha uhambo lwabo lomthengi. Udidi lweFly lwaluquka iifayili, elinye ishishini elinakukwazi ukuhamba ngokuhambelana nezilwanyana, kulindelekileyo.
Kodwa ezithandathu ezithandwayo zizintlu zifumana amanqaku angaphezu kwama-average asekelwe kwiingxelo ezingaphezulu kwama-50,000:
- GasBuddy (85.0)
- Ukubhuka.com (84.0)
- Groupon (82.5)
- Hamba ngeGoogle (80.0)
- TripAdvisor (74.0)
- Yelp (67.5)
Ukubhuka kwi-Booking.com kudlalwa rhoqo ngenxa yokusebenza nokuzinza. I-Groupon inqoba i-kudos ukuze isebenze, iyanelisekile, isebenze, kunye nexabiso, ngelixa u-Waze eyaziwayo ngomxholo wayo kunye nokusebenzisana okuvela phakathi kwabathengisi bayo. I-TripAdvisor yayidunyiswa ngokubhaliweyo kunye nokuphakama kwayo kwaye i-Yelp yaphawulwa ngokukwazi kwayo ukuzonwabisa (oko kukuthi, ukwaneliseka) kunye nokusetyenziswa kwayo (oko kukuthi, ubuchule, ukulula, kunye nobuhle).
Kodwa xa abahambi bevakalelwa kakuhle okanye bengagcinwanga, banesitishi kwiintengiso ze-app apho baxelela khona amava-okuhle nokubi. Iiprogram ezisixhenxe ezizalisiweyo ezixutywayo ezingaphezu kwe-10,000 zihamba ngeenqwelo ezihamba ngaphantsi kwama-50, kwaye ezimbini zazingama-airlines: i-Delta Air Lines (35.5) kunye ne-Southwest Airlines (25.5).
Iifayili zelifa zijongene nemingeni kubandakanya ukuhlanganiswa kunye nokuncintisana nezithuthi eziphantsi kweendleko ezingenaso ubunzima bezithuthi ezindala, kutsho uGrey. "Ndiye ndixoxisana neenqwelo zeenqwelo-moya ezinjenge-Delta ne-America, kwaye ziyaxabisa ukuba amava abo adijithali awanako ukukwazi ukukwenza, kodwa asebenza ngokunyanisekileyo ukuhamba kunye neenkokheli zenkampani njenge-Alaska Airlines, " uthe.
Ama-Alaska Airlines aphuma entloko kunye namahlombe angaphezulu kweempahla ezi-18 zasekhaya nakwamanye amazwe, wathi uGrey. "Esinye isizathu kukuba iAlaska yona inxibelelwano kunye neemfuno zabathengi bayo. Yenze umsebenzi obalaseleyo ukuphulaphula ilizwi labathengi ngendlela yokubandakanya intlalo, "watsho. Kodwa ke ndibona iimpawu ezifana neUnited, Delta kunye ne-America eqonda ukuba impumelelo nokuvavanya oko bangakwenza ukuze bafezekise kwiinyanga ezili-18 ezizayo. "
Ezinye iinkqubo zee-airline zithintele kakubi ngamanyathelo aqhubela phambili afakwe ngabakhuphiswano bawo, kusho ingxelo. Ngokomzekelo, iBritish Airways inikeza ulwazi olulula nolwazi lokubhuka ngeli xesha i-JetBlue inikeza ukuboniswa kwakhona kwe-iPad kunye nokuzinza okuzinzile. "Okuthandayo kweQatar Airways, Air France, Air Canada kunye neKLM inomhlaba wokufihla ukufezekisa ubunye," kuchaza.
Kungakhathaliseki ukuba inkampani yenkampani, i-geografi okanye idumela, abasebenzisi be-app bayamazwi ngamava abo. Ixesha leempawu zokuhamba ukufumana amaqhinga okuqala-mbonakaliso aphakamisa ibha yekhwalithi ekugqibeleni ivelise amava kumakhasimende athile kuwo onke amazwe. "
Iingcebiso zeGrey kwi-airline industry? "Jonga iinkokeli kwezinye iindawo zoshishino lokuhamba kwaye ubone ukuba zeziphi eziphambili kakhulu," watsho. "Qonda ukuba uhambo lomhambi lubukeka njani. Kukho amaninzi amanqaku okuthintela apho abathengi badibanisana neenqwelo zeenqwelo-moya kwaye ngamnye unelungelo lokuba adibana neenqwelo-moya ukuze athabathe abathengi kwaye azinike ngokuqhubekayo ngamava, "watsho.
