Air France Frequence Plus - AF useless new iPad app

Air France just launched today an iPad app. It looks nice but is useless. A few nice shots of exotic places, a few promo prices and links to AF website for bookings, check-ins. 50.000€ (minimum) that could have been saved for Transform 2015... :mad:

Funny, I can't even find it in the iTunes Store, nor in the French, nor in the Swiss nor in the US ones (I don't have an account in other iTunes stores).

What's the exact name of the app? Can't imagine that they already withdrew it in shame.

It is the last one on the list when you search for Air France iPad apps in the French store. It was also advertised on AF Facebook page today and will be launched probably with great fanfare on AF corporate website....

Interestingly, I experienced a glitch with the regular iPhone app recently: my boarding pass had disappeared just before boarding. Showing my ID was enough to get a printed one at the gate, however, ever since I am not able anymore to check in with the app! :(

Did you try deleting the app from your iPhone and reinstalling it ? The app kept bugging as it was installed both on my iPad and my iPhone but it works now that I have reinstalled it.
