Middle/Senior Product Designer

Who are we?

App in the Air is your personal travel assistant. Founded by entrepreneur Bayram Annakov and his team in 2012, App in the Air is a technology company designed for frequent flyers -- inspired by George Clooney’s character in “Up in the Air,” a frequent flyer who knew all the airline/airport tips and tricks to survive while living out of his suitcase.

The app manages the entire trip life cycle: from search & book, pre-trip details, day of travel notifications and post trip management -- all in one place. The app is available on the Apple App store, Google Play store and Samsung Galaxy store.

Our audience has grown from a small network of dedicated fliers to over six million downloads with 20 million itineraries tracked per year. App in the Air has earned esteemed accolades including one of Apple’s Best Apps of 2015, the leading travel app in the Samsung Galaxy Store and favorite Apple Watch app of 2018.
