Customer Reviews

Looks good, but crashes upon startup (1 star)
I had high hopes for this upgrade; however, it crashes every time I start it after entering one trip consisting of just two flight segments. As-soon-as the trips screen appears, it crashes. I did a cold boot of my 3G, but it still crashes.

When entering flight info, I wish the app would determine cities after I provide the airline, flight number, and date.

Hopefully, the crashing problem will be fixed soon...

Very Useful (4 stars)
This intuitive program really fills a void by collecting your travel details in one place. It also automatically keeps track of your flight status (delays, gate info) and provides a link to check in on line.

One small shortcoming - it will not keep track of a trip that does not include air travel. If you are driving somewhere and have hotel reservations you can't store it in Auto Pilot ( I guess the Pilot part implies air travel ).

Love TripIt Integration (5 stars)
TripIt integration is flawless and airport delay map makes this the best travel app I've ever used.
