Working with Swiss based client gategroup Point One have a series of designs flying on British Airways. Hundreds of thousands of World Traveller passengers each year receive an inflight meal and look at the designs by Point One.

When viewed on a mobile the site immediately defaults to this dedicated portal which retrieves the same information as the main site but presents it in a format that is so much easier to read and scroll through. Take a look at this recently launched site we developed for www.bankmachine.com and you will see that we have also added a 'find ATM' search facility that works on both main and mobile sites.....smart thinking!
