A Flagship Success for the Client

Challenge
A Danish software company invited Cogniteq experts to participate in a large-scale international project aimed at developing the official mobile app for flight booking. This collaboration marked an important step in delivering a top-tier digital product to millions of users worldwide and became a great opportunity for our Android developers to demonstrate their expertise on a global stage.
At the very beginning of the partnership, the Android version of the app was already a mature product, containing several large modules and serving a vast user base. Users already had access to a wide range of travel-related features such as flight search, ticket purchase, baggage and insurance payments, seat selection, meal pre-order, online check-in, flight status tracking, booking management, and profile settings. Cogniteq’s team was tasked with building out even more features and delivering robust post-launch technical support.
Solution
At a new phase of the project, Cogniteq concentrated on enhancing core functionalities such as flight search, ticket booking, and booking management. Given that the app relies on a complex backend and several SDKs handling critical app logic, our experts contributed significantly to its success by implementing new features and running multiple series of app testing.
In addition to feature development, Cogniteq’s team has been providing ongoing technical support for over four years. This includes regular updates, prompt bug fixes, performance optimization, and compatibility adjustments with new Android versions and devices. We’ve built a solid maintenance process to ensure the app remains fast, secure, and stable under high loads, while also responding quickly to user feedback and market changes.
Enhanced Booking Functionality
We improved the ticket booking experience to make it faster and more reliable, ensuring a seamless journey from search to checkout.
Extensive Modular Architecture
All client apps follow a multi-module structure. Our team developed and optimized over 20 modules to ensure stability and an excellent user experience. Key modules include Booking, Trip Summary, User Profile, Promotion, Log in, Payment, Search, and Seats.
Custom Backend Development
Our backend contributions included working with local card schemes, acquirers, and payment service providers, as well as integrating alternative payment methods and optimizing the overall payment flow.
Support for Amadeus CMS
We enhanced the backend functionality of the Amadeus CMS — vital software in airline operations that manages booking, flight scheduling, seat capacity, and departure control.
Advanced Search Functionality
We optimized the flight search feature, making it faster and more intuitive for users to find and book flights based on their preferences such as price, schedule, and airline.
User Profile and Personalization
The Cogniteq team improved the user profile section, enabling personalized recommendations, travel history tracking, and easy access to bookings, creating a more tailored and engaging experience for each user.
Payment Ecosystem
Special attention was drawn to the development of the payment ecosystem. Our experts have integrated the following payment methods:
- Google Pay
- PayPal
- UnionPay
- Internet Banking
- Payment Cards
We've introduced an uncommon feature for apps like this: users can book a flight and check in before paying. They then complete the payment later at any bank branch, and once it's processed, the ticket is immediately sent to their email.
