VistArrow

An Android App that will unleash Vistara Airport Experience.

Motivation 💪

In Airport, experience for passengers is very varied, while frequent fliers may find the Airport experience very monotonous and at times cumbersome due to congestion and lengthy procedures, infrequent passengers are always fascinated with the airline travel. Passengers do experiences different activities within Airport, from Airport entry to counters to security queues shops to restaurants to lounges and terminals.
These distractions may even lead to the passengers missing their flights.
We wanted to improve their airport experience by simplifying the understanding of airport procedure.
