Recent site changes

Over the course of the last month, we have been slowly adding new features and improvements on the web site. This is a brief re-cap of some of the changes.

User Profile Changes - Users have asked to support additional time and date formats and now we do. Logged in users can choose from a couple different formats. To change your default choice, click on the Profile link in the upper-right hand corner of the screen. In addition, you can also choose your primary and secondary airports, your favorite airline, and set up your primary and secondary e-mail locations for your flight alerts.

User Interface Improvements - Based on some user feed-back, and our own likes/dislikes we have made some user interface improvements on the site that we feel help make pages cleaner and more useable.

Travel Directory - We started gathering together a directory of useful travel sites and tools. We hope to continually add sites as we encounter them, and will also allow users to submit their own links in an upcoming release. Until then, if you have a site you would like linked, send an e-mail to support@flightstats.com.

Security Wait Times Graph - There is now a wait time trend graph on our security wait times application. This graph should give you a good indication on the performance trend over the last few months for a given terminal and time of day at an airport.

Flight Monitor - You can send plain text and SMS style messages to one or more e-mail addresses. In addition, you can select whether you want departure and/or arrivals events.

Bug fixes - We.ve been hard at work identifying and fixing problems. In addition, several of you have been nice enough to point out errors, and we appreciate it. The sooner we hear about a problem, the sooner we can get it fixed.

The website has had fantastic growth in the last month and we want to thank each and every one of you for using FlightStats! If there is anything we can do to make this website more useful to you, please let us know.

Thank you very much for using FlightStats!
