Apple’s feud with Adobe has been making headlines and this latest news should make Apple happy. Virgin America has ditched Flash on its website because of lack of iPhone support. The new website was launched on Monday and will be replacing Flash with HTML so that customers can easily check in using their iPhones.
Of course the site will also be moved to HTML5, once the standards have been ratified. We aren’t sure if the loss of Flash will help Virgin America with increased web traffic or not, but we are assuming that they know their customers and if they do, this may be a great move for them.

Smart. If your site doesn’t truly need Flash to work then you are better off simplifying it to reach the greatest number of potential customers. More often than not if I see a Flash into page I bail from the site because I don’t want Flash to crash my browser. Never mind skipping entirely with my iPhone.
