Universal Weather and Aviation, Inc. Now Provides Free Worldwide Airport and FBO Information via Universal Mobile
(firmenpresse) - LAS VEGAS, NV -- (Marketwired) -- 10/21/13 -- Universal Weather and Aviation, Inc. announced at NBAA2013 that it has enhanced its free Apple® iPad® app, Universal® Mobile, by integrating its popular trip reference tool UVTripPlanner(SM), which provides information on worldwide airports, FBOs, ground handlers, in-flight caterers, ground transport providers, hotels, and more. UVTripPlanner(SM) is available for free to anyone who downloads the Universal® Mobile app, which can be accessed at , or NBAA attendees can visit Universal exhibit C11016 in Las Vegas.
The information in UVTripPlanner(SM) is the same data used and audited daily by Universal® in facilitating business aviation trips worldwide, and it's licensed by nearly every major scheduling software application in the business aviation industry.
"It is critical business aviation professionals have accurate, worldwide airport-related information they can rely on to successfully plan their trips," said Randy Stephens, Division Vice President, Product Management, Universal®. "With the continued evolvement in how people in our industry now work, it only made sense to make it available for the iPad through our Universal® Mobile app. And instead of charging users for it, we made the decision to make it open-access so that everyone could benefit from utilizing UVTripPlanner data."
Through Universal® Mobile, Universal clients receiving online weather services will also now have access to expanded weather capabilities such as radar, satellite, TAFs and METARs, which were also introduced with this latest release.
