Why Travel Apps Should Solve the Connectivity Challenge

Your customers need it, so why not provide it? 

You already have the customers; provide them with the missing piece: connectivity. 

For today’s traveler, your app is their guide, translator, and lifeline. But what happens when they land in a new destination and lose internet access? A missed check-in, an unusable ride-sharing app, or an inaccessible boarding pass: these all lead to unnecessary stress and wasted time trying to find connectivity.

Many travel companies today make the user experience simpler than ever, with booking, live information, and tickets available all in one app. Even extras like car hires or public transport tickets have been integrated into the available services. But when it comes to connectivity, customers have to find a solution elsewhere.

Travelers need seamless internet access, and they shouldn’t have to scramble to find a solution. Instead, your app can provide it effortlessly, keeping users connected and stress-free from the moment they book their trip to the second they arrive at their destination.
Travelers need to find ways to connect to the internet easily. So let your travel app be their go-to solution.

The Connectivity Conundrum  

Picture this.

Scenario A:  

Your customer lands in a foreign place and tries to use the Car Ride App at their hotel. They panic as the app won't load, they don’t have internet, and they don't speak the language. 

Instead: A user books a car ride to the airport. The app knows they’re about to travel and prompts you “Traveling abroad? Download an eSIM. Enjoy your travels!” Your user can now seamlessly use your booking app at their destination.

Scenario B:

Your customer has just landed in Paris. It’s late, and they’re excited to check into their charming studio apartment. But wait—the host's messages won’t load. They’re locked out. Panic ensues. They need to find internet.

Instead: Your app offers an eSIM when they book through your platform. The moment they land, their eSIM is active, allowing them to access their messages seamlessly—without ever having to think about connectivity.
