If you really came up with a superhot must have piece of FF software, I would suggest that you speak with the the owner of FT, Randy, as he may be just a little bit more effective in marketing it and really has a line on the best customers!

Dear Softwaremaker
Here's an idea. I'd like to see a web page that would search travelocity and instantly find any air fare stuff ups ie air fares for $80 between Melbourne and London. That would be useful.

Thanks for all the feedback so far. Would anyone of you pay for a service (like mileage runs calculations, etc.)?
Say something like:
$0.25 for a one day search
$1.00 for a one month search
$5.00 for a one year search
Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE
At that price, Yes.

Just curious...
How many mileage runners do you guys think are out there? Basically, is the market big enough to sustain my undertaking?

I also was a fan of Fare Compare and sent jimbob an email offering to donate toward the cause if he could resume it, but never heard back. So yes, I'd definitely pay for something similar. I'd also be interested in something like this site http://www.air-fare.com/allsav.htm which finds the day's airfare cuts out of any city, but for international flights. Air-fare.com only does domestic.

I would love a system that gave me a single source summary of all hotel, airline programs and give me the option to calculate a vacation. For example, 'Go to Walt Disney World for 2' and have it search all my accounts and spit back something like that if I use 50,000 miles out of my UA account, and 8 of my 10 upgrades (2 each way per person), and XX of Hilton points to stay at the Hilton at the Village Marketplace and that the cheapest rental car that I have a membership card to is XYZ.
Could get very involved, but I'd certainly pay for it.
