In order to bring as much ease as possible to the process of boarding a flight, [easyJet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easyjet-spotify) will soon be launching a mobile travel app just for the Apple Watch. This app will allow travelers to display their boarding passes on their wearable devices and get real-time updates through the smart timepiece. In preparation for an exciting trip, there's also a fun countdown feature that shows the days remaining until the easyJet flight. Beyond access to details on an upcoming flight's status, users also have a wealth of other information at their fingertips, including exchange rates and weather at the destination. Right from the app, users can also share updates to social media using built-in [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gopeng-sanctuary) and [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-great-spud-getaway) buttons.

Streamlining communication on all fronts, this is a handy app that will bring additional convenience to travelers and airline staff.
