I work for an app development company and was wondering what type of things regular flyers like yourselves would like to see / or not see on an app.

It would be great to get ideas of what really counts to the customer and build something that does everything a regular user would demand.

I have been looking at the following apps

Lufthansa
Thai Touch
Fly Delta
TAP Portugal
American Airlines
Etihad Guest
Virgin Atlantic City Guide
Virgin Australia
HK Airlines Club Class
Croatia Air
MH Mobile (Malaysian)
Entertain - Virgin Australia

They all have certain areas of interest but I would love to be able to build a concept to then show an airline such as Emirates or another that perhaps we could run as a poll.

Thank you for reading
Thanks for looking into this.
I use the Lufthansa app for two things:
1) Check my upcoming reservations (they are all listed in the app)
2) Check my frequent flyer account balance

I don't know what else I would use an app for- what I would like from emirates is to have a mobile boarding pass built into the app- this would save me printing out boarding passes.
I've used mobile boarding pass on Emirates but I find it a bit of a pain.
