British Airways has introduced check-in for mobile phones with internet connectivity.

The service allows mobile phone users to find up-to-the-minute BA flight departure and arrival information, as well as select seats and check-in individuals and families for flights within 24 hours of departure.

The mobile service follows on from BA's Apple iPhone application, which allows iPhone users to check-in using their handsets.
