The app has been developed with the carrier’s mobile partner MTT, and will be available in five languages at launch.

James Millett, easyJet’s head of digital, said: “EasyJet passengers continue to see the benefit of using our app to make travel easier and we are sure that many of them will be early adopters of Apple Watch.

“We constantly look for new ways to improve the travel experiences of our passengers and providing up-to-date information on the latest technology such as Apple Watch is key to this.

“Our Apple Watch app is another example of innovating to make travel as easy as it is affordable with easyJet.”?

Other features of the Apple Watch will include check-in details, up-to-date local currency rates, weather in destination and real-time flight status.

Passengers will also be able to tweet and post to Facebook at various stages of their trip directly from the watch face.
