Stockholm – German airline Lufthansa has created an alarm clock smartphone app for the Swedish market called Anywake, which wakes people up with the sound of a different city each morning.
The free alarm app prompts the user to guess the city and enter its name. If they guess correctly they win a discount on a Lufthansa flight to that city.
This is a simple way for the airline to use Gamification to advertise its destinations to consumers, and to increase ticket sales.
