Crewbid is an iPad application for crewmember's of Southwest Airlines that allows remote access for employees to manage their bidding schedules. An employee in the airlines industry has hundreds of packaged choices for where and when they will fly in any given week. In an auction type format, they bid on their favorite packages and the winners are chosen via seniority.
Appstronauts was hired by Brainbag Software, a team of Southwest pilots who also manage the company's APIs, to design the user experience and interfaces for the iOS mobile platform. We went through multiple rounds of Product Strategy sessions and UX flows until the optimal experience for airline bidding was baked and frosted with a brand specific visual aesthetic.
