Getting up to 10 concurrent searches at the same time, so there might be a slower response time. Trying to optimize the app to make it faster.

"-" would either mean "On Request" or that the information is not available for the flight. I will add a distinction for "On Request" flights soon.

Firewall issue?
I just tried it and get a message "You seem to be behind a firewall.. Search stopped"

I am at work currently and we are behind a pretty secure firewall.

Will I have the same issue behind my little Cisco/Linksys firewall at home? I have it configured for NAT and filtering.

Dosen't work well behind strong firewalls because I'm using WebSockets for real-time search. The next update will probably release an update that deals with people behind strong firewalls.. It will work at home.

I love the simplicity of it...and especially the "days" in advance.

Keep It up!

This is a great tool, thanks for the effort. I would be willing to pay for it.

(Unfortunately it's delivering me the usual bad news about availability.)

What do you guys think about having the ability to view past searches (by yourself and others?)

Not sure if that would work since you always need real time availability. The seat could have been gone by the time you look at past searches or a new one opened up that was not there previously.
