Description:
Retrieve from the Internet live Flight Status for most all commercial flights which operate in the U.S.
Over 70 airlines are supported. All you need to know is the airline and the flight number.
Flight Status will do the rest. Also included is a flight number lookup feature - useful when you don't know the flight number and an airport/city lookup table.
Features:
- This software is useful whether you are trying to catch a flight or as an aid when picking someone up at the airport.
- This program supports any Palm OS device that has an Internet connection (SmartPhones such as the Treo and Samsung lines, Wi-Fi enabled palms and bluetooth enabled palms that have Internet access via a bluetooth enabled cell phone.)
- This software is about 10 times faster than using your palm's conventional browser to get this information.
- This software was written by a high school freshman and is being offered as freeware/begware. No subscriptions, no fees.
- This software is handy when you need to pickup someone at the airport. It will tell you very accurately when the flight is going to land or when a flight is estimated to take off. NOTE: All actual departure times are the time of takeoff not the time the flight departed from the gate. Actual arrival times are the time of landing not the time the aircraft arrived at the gate.
- This application is a palm application not a .pqa.
Update Description:
v2.00:
- Added Gate Information for airlines marked with an '*'.
- Added baggage claim information for airlines marked with '**'.
v1.05:
- Improved speed of data retrieval while reducing the amount of data transferred by a factor of 10 or 20 times. Enjoy
v1.02:
- Check the time it takes to clear Atlanta Security in real time.

This is superb for real travelers. Who cares for a third world country like Mexico, the important is that it works in most first world countries. That is very nice.

As a frequent business traveller I needed an application to keep me up to date on flights and delays. This is better than pulling out the laptop and hitting the airline sites!!! Awsome realtime delay and arrival info as well as a cool map of your flight path !!! If you travel, you need this application as much as as you need a wake up call for a 05:30 departure!!!!

I've used this program on Treo 650 but now i'm using a WM5 cell phone...i really need it! None of those commercial programs can be compared to this one! Great work but wm5 users need one, too :P

I had a treo and this was extremely handy. I am now onto Windows Smartphone and miss this functionality. Any plans of converting to WM5 smartphone platform? If you can give me the info on where to get the flight data, I can convert this app for you...

Great program however needs to incorporate Mexico - then it would be 5 stars. Please add support for Mexico bound and leaving flights.
