The Official Klout Blog

Tweet

Just a couple of weeks ago, we introduced Klout for iPhone to help people keep track of their influence wherever they go.

Today we’re announcing a great partnership with Cathay Pacific Airways that makes the benefit of taking your Klout with you even more obvious. Starting today, San Francisco International Airport (SFO) visitors using the Klout for iPhone app need only show a Score of 40 or higher to enter the Cathay Pacific First and Business Class Lounge. Previously, the only way to see the inside of a Cathay Pacific Lounge was by holding a First or Business Class plane ticket. Now, Klout unlocks access to this amazing experience. This applies to any visitor traveling through the “A” boarding area at SFO’s international terminal, even if they aren’t a Cathay Pacific passenger.

Among many other amenities, Cathay Pacific’s sleek lounge boasts the airline’s signature noodle bar, a comfortable seating area, workstations and shower suites. Check out a video tour of the lounge here.

Helping people understand and benefit from their influence takes many shapes and forms. We hope to do that in every way possible, whether it’s through Perks on Klout.com or by showing your Klout Score at a first class airport lounge. Cathay Pacific is one of the first partners to recognize the power of using Klout for iPhone to introduce their exclusive experience to a new breed of customers.

Download Klout for iPhone so you can visit the Cathay Pacific lounge next time you’re traveling through SFO!
