Indispensable! (5 stars)
I recently downloaded this app & have found that it will be one of my favorites.
Not only does it keep track of my own trips but those of friends, colleagues and family who are traveling as well.
The flight status is brilliant. Now I can tell just when a flight has departed, landed...all before I get text messages from the passenger. This is great for not only business travelers but also anyone who needs to drop off or pick som

Responce From App Developer (5 stars)
Emailed my previous concern to the developer, got a responce from THEE developer the same day. He expalined my concerns and the hows and whys of their data. Considering all things that are involved, I don't think you can do better than right here.

One of my favorite apps (5 stars)
Excellent application, a must-have for those who travel. It gives you everything you need to get updates on flight changes, gate changes, etc. Very easy to use, and a good integration with TripIt. Very hard to come up with any criticism. Perhaps only a few suggestions on further development. It would be nice to be able to attach electronic boarding passes and include links to check-in websites. Also, it would be nice to integrate FlightUp
