Which is exactly the same feeling I get after using worldmate for an extended period of time.
False positives and false negatives when it comes to flight alerts, failures to pick up schedule changes. And of course no monitoring of reservations.
And no interest in fixing any of these shortcomings.
Are there really no alternatives when it comes to a pro app that can keep track of all the bits and pieces of travel?!

CallShortcut
An excellent Cydia tweak that lets you put an icon on the home screen that directly dials (or Facetimes) someone without having to go into Contacts of Phone/Recent

Can't you just tell Siri to FaceTime whomever?

Yes, but this is so much easier and faster. I tend to use Siri very little.

Has anyone used Tripcase?
I have been using it for some time, it is in the same sense like TripIt, but it does track changes to your reservation. My only complain is that it doesn't track automatically Southwest, I assume because they pull the info directly from the GDS.

I have 2 main problems with tripcase, which made me stop using it: 1) the import of reservations has a very low success ratio and 2) it does not support international usage (like time and date formats)

Workflow for automation
No jailbreak needed to put a shortcut of a phone number on home screen. I also have a small workflow to copy my email address to the clipboard instead of typing or autofill.
It is very capable of a whole lot more

I noticed that FlightTrack Pro is gone from the App Store now. Does anyone know of a similar app that syncs with TripIt to track flights? I can't possibly imagine why they would have pulled it...
