Q. Why should I upgrade to Gold?
A. WorldMate gives you many useful and helpful services as part of the "free" membership.
But many travelers choose Gold membership for even greater control of their travel experience. For example, Gold membership gives you:
- Flight alerts - get live notifications on the status of your flight. You will be notified immediately of delayed or cancelled flights, allowing you to re-schedule or find alternate flight in time.
- Flight Schedules - find all the possible ways to get to your destination, either directly or via connections, to allow you to better plan your trip and time.
- Travel Directory (Blackberry only) - easily find contact information for airports, airlines, hotels and other travel related services, right on your mobile device.
