Hey everyone!
I am a frequent traveler and a software developer. I just started an application that provides detailed information about airports. As fellow frequent flyers, what information would you find most helpful to have on hand in an airport?

Welcome to FT. I guess where the lounges are would be helpful.

Welcome to Flyertalk.

This thread offers some suggestions

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...-airports.html


I think for me it would be all the usual stuff, which food is where, where the bathrooms and lounges are, etc.

It would also be nice to know where the plugs are, where there are soda and candy machines (sometimes they are usually for employees, but in out of the way public areas at half the cost in the stores), local hotels and phone numbers (missed connections), mailboxes and luggage storage if any.

Just to give my opinions, normal thinks like lounges, food, bathrooms etc. I really like the idea of chargers and outlets as well.

Information on Wifi availability and pricing would also come in handy.
