It has been reported that United Airlines will be giving 23,000 plus flight attendants iPhone 6 Plus devices in 2015. The reason behind this is so that the flight attendants will be able to access company emails, take onboard transactions, and access internal information. United Airlines was also the first to provide the iPad Air to pilots in 2011 and will be doing so with the iPad Air 2 this year as well. United Airlines is also equipping iPads at the Newark Liberty International Airport for customer use. The iPhone 6 Plus devices will be handed out in the second quarter of next year. According to inflight services senior vice president, Sam Risoli:
We are thrilled to make this investment in our flight attendants. iPhone 6 Plus will enable them to deliver an even higher level of flyer-friendly service and will offer our flight attendants simple, one-touch access to valuable work information, enabling them to better serve our customers.
