Above the Clouds
“Become part of Untappd’s “Mile High Club”. No, it’s not the same as that other one.”
Above the Clouds was conceived as a venue badge for aboard planes. The intent was to check in from a WiFi enabled airplane and list your venue as one categorised as Plane/In-flight.
Unfortunately, WiFi wasn’t as widespread on planes as it is now and the administrators started manually awarding the badge based on photos of beer taken on board planes. This created a lot of work and the badge was eventually withdrawn.
That’s the last entry from our week looking at defunct badges. Normal service resumes next week!
