Whatever bonehead at Expedia killed this golden goose should be tarred and feathered. That was a loyal direct line for thousands of the world's top frequent travelers!
But frequent travelers should switch to the Expedia app! Soon it will have all the functionality of Flight Track Pro, and everyone loves to book via Expedia!
I hate it when a big corporation buys up a great little company and kills it.
I downloaded The Flight Tracker (paid version), and we'll see how it goes. At least I still have TripIt Pro for alerts, so all is not completely lost - but the way Flight Track Pro synced with both TripIt and my iPhone calendar was one of the app's most useful features. I hope The Flight Tracker will fill in Flight Track Pro's shoes, but that's going to be a tough job.
