Stratix Works with Southwest Airlines to Deploy iPad Mini-Powered Electronic Flight Bags into the Cabin

NORCROSS, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#simplifymobile–Stratix, which provides enterprise managed mobile services (MMS), and
Southwest Airlines, the airline known for exemplary customer service,
continue their mobility collaboration by incorporating iPad mini-powered
Electronic Flight Bags (EFB) into the aircraft cabin.

The EFBs will replace the paper manuals that Southwest Flight Attendants
use to reference policies, procedures and manuals while working a trip.
The iPad minis also will enable Southwest to simplify the way policies
and procedures are updated and ensure that flight attendants receive
updates at the same time.

Take Flight At Southwest,” a feature cover story on the project in
the August issue of Field Technologies Online.

President Cabin Services. “At Southwest, we strive for continuous
improvement, and this multi-year mobility initiative is going to bring
about new and exciting changes for our flight attendants and our
customer experience.”

created a long-standing collaboration with Southwest,” said Gina Gallo,
president and CEO, Stratix Corporation. “Helping our clients realize the
full value of their mobile investments and achieve their corporate
