ANA Takeoff Mode | iPhone app for nervous flyers



It's a cute idea… a little puzzle app that nervous flyers can play with on their iPhones during takeoff, said to be the most stressful part of a flight for anxious flyers. Though developed by ANA, the Japanese airline, the app will of course work on any airline :-)

Take a look at the video at the top. Passengers start playing the game during takeoff, and the app automatically adjusts for the ambient noise inside the cabin. There is apparently a special animation and message when the plane reaches full throttle.

It's free, so give it a try the next time you fly… and let me know what you think. Here's the download link.
