I've been beta testing the TripIt integration with Flight Manufactory the by few weeks and have absolutely loved information technology. I was in Seattle a week and a half agone and didn't accept to worry about entering in my own flight details into Flying Manufactory. You lot can run into in the screenshots in a higher place an upcoming trip to Las Vegas (CES 2022!). I could accept manually entered in the information like a Neanderthal (no offense to our long lost relatives, but Man sapiens did win out) or let the information from TripIt to automatically be included, which is exactly what I did.

The update to version 1.vi.0 of Flight Mill besides adds more than only TripIt integration. Anytime you open the app it will automatically refresh flight information and remove by flights. You can also find alternative flights within the app. And of course, there are bug fixes in this update.

Nosotros've been fans of Flight Manufactory for a long fourth dimension and this update makes information technology even ameliorate. The app does cost $4.99, simply that price is worth information technology. Why does it price then much? Considering Flying Factory relies on flight data from FlightStats, which isn't cheap. FlightStats also provides information to Bing, and so you lot know you're getting quality flight data when using Flight Factory.
