Skyscanners Mobile Apps Hit 10M Downloads, Letting Users Find Cheap Flights On The Go
Skyscanner is somewhat of a Scottish success story. Founded in 2003, the travel search site, best known for its flight comparisons (though it's branched out to include car hire and hotels), is reportedly on track to achieve an annual turn over of close to 30m, nearing 10m in profit. That's likely been bouyed by a recent partnership it signed with the Chinese search engine Baidu.And today, the company is announcing another impressive milestone: Its free mobile apps, which let users find cheap flights on the go and target iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry, have hit ten million downloads -- running up a rate of one download every five seconds (someone in the PR department obviously did their homework).Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/Ka20w86zLg8/
