Facebook Messenger has announced a tie-up with the KLM Royal Dutch Airlines where the air travellers will receive each and every information related to their travel on Messenger – including boarding pass.
Once you book your ticket online and choose to receive info via Messenger on the KLM website, the airline will send you itinerary, boarding pass, check-in confirmation and flight status through the app, The Verge reported.
With a digital boarding pass, passengers will be able to get through security and onto their flight.
Passengers will also be able to chat with KLM support staff on the Messenger.
