ArrivedOK, the personal flight arrival tracker finishes the phase of public beta and goes commercial now. ArrivedOK tracks air travelers' cell phones in a mobile network when it is turned on after landing and instantly sends those tailored 'Arrived OK' messages to the designated recipients via SMS, email, and social media.

The automated flight plan systems do not provide accurate reporting about flight arrivals all the time, which was demonstrated on November 19, 2009 when the glitch in US air traffic control network caused flight delays across the nation. Unlike other tracking services that use centralized flight status data, ArrivedOK tracks one's actual appearance in the destination airport using individual mobile phone status.

"Even as a paid service, ArrivedOK SMS alerts allow the subscribers bypassing the heavy international roaming charges." - says Andrey Deriabin, Director Business Development at arrivedOK.mobi Inc. "However, we'd like to make it completely free for the end users. So we are working on B2B partnerships that would allow subsidizing the mobile traffic generated by our subscribers. During the public beta phase we received very promising responses from air companies, which look for new opportunities in a time of economic hardship. While discount airlines primarily see ArrivedOK as a source of ancillary revenue, "majors" also consider it as customer loyalty tool, willing to subsidize the service to their frequent flyers."

ArrivedOK also provides monetization opportunity to travel websites and startups. "There are a lot of travel-related social networking projects seeking monetization." - says Andrey Deriabin. "ArrivedOK perfectly matches their audience. We're currently doing test integration with selected sites, and will make ArrivedOK API publicly available until the end of the year via http://partners.arrivedok.mobi"

ArrivedOK has been selected as a Webby Awards 2009 Official Honoree in two categories: Best Use of GPS or Location Technology and Experimental & Innovation. The service is currently available worldwide except for the subscribers of the US and Chinese mobile networks.
