Spot-On is a free download to help travelers find the top local spots "for a purchase or a pint." The new app offers an in-pocket extension of Air New Zealand's renowned Inflight Concierge service (highly recommended by EDGE Travel Editor Jason Salzenstein), providing one-touch access to resources such as travel deals, tube maps, hand-picked recommendations and can't-miss events and tourist sites.
