Information gets outdated quickly.

SkyTeam is just one alliance which added new partners after this software was last updated.

BTW is this app the best Airline route mapper out there or are there better ones that exist.

The problem is the information always changes and its hard to keep up.

Also out of ISP airport in Long Island, NY, they only list Southwest as the carrier when in fact USAirways also runs a flight out of there to Philadelphia.

Plus LGA will see changes as well in the future.

Not to mention AirTran and Southwest are merging so eventually the routes could change as well.

Oh and the Dreamliner 787 isn't listed in the equipment codes which is flying under ANA (all nippon) so those flights need to be added.

The application is great for a free route map but it seems as though a full scale development effort is needed since info changes realtime and the interface is primative, not up to the best mapping standards.

Not to nitpick. :-) It is nice for free and I don't know of any other route mappers like this since the others I know of essentially limit to a single airline or their codeshare partners.

I don't think any of the systems really want to be compatible with each other from a booking standpoint.
