I really like the TripIt idea, and actually paid for the service for one year before dropping it due to two bugs they refuse to address.

1. I live in Australia, and the TripIt app routinely screws-up my flight schedule due to dateline problems. It shows my connection from GUM/HNL to HNL/IAH as being missed by a day, when in fact that is of course not the case.

2. The "pro" system bombards the user if a flight changes time, or a gate - in some cases I've received two dozen or more change notices while sitting at the gate knowing full well of the status. There is no way to tell the system "I got it, don't bug me anymore". And it's unclear why the system keeps sending the same message over and over again.

I've reported these issues to senior management at TripIt, including so-called CEO Gregg Brockaway, who've acknowledged the issue but apparently have no interest in fixing it.
