FlightNetwork.com, one of Canada’s leaders in online travel, today announced the launch of the FlightNetwork.com free iPhone, and BlackBerry mobile applications. Unique to the FlightNetwork.com mobile application is the ability to search and compare the lowest airfares available in the country, then seamlessly book a flight within the native app, without being re-directed to another webpage or having to telephone in payment information.
