traveling with Facebook on Malaysia Airlines

Traveling nowadays is less fun than it used to be. Today, you have to wait for about three hours at the airport because the security has been reinforced and passengers are feeling this and they are having a bad time before getting in the aircraft. This article explains us how an application can change our traveling time. the application is called MHBuddy and is available on Facebook. Partner with Malaysia Airlines, this app is used not only as a booking service but also as a check in service. The airline company is not the first to allow booking with Facebook (Delta was) but now, passengers are also allowed to check in with their Facebook account but the really new service with this app is that you can sit next to your Facebook friends. Basically, this app allows you to control your travel without leaving you Facebook account; but Malaysia Airlines also allows you to check who is already on your destination. 

This is a very good association of Facebook and an airline company; however, once again it is an invasion in privacy. Of course you are not forced to use the application but if you would like to use it, your trip obviously becomes a public thing. 

In a way, Facebook is kind of public and almost everybody can access your information if you do not monitor your privacy settings. Facebook has an impact on social life and you'd better watch and keep control on what you are doing on this media. Giving information about your flight, your seat and your personal information on a social media might not be a good idea even if you would like to know who is going to take the same plane.

This application is a good thing because it helps you to enjoy your trip and not being seated next to a weird person but at the same time, we realize that nothing is private anymore in this social media era.
