New Day-of-Travel Airport Content Simplifies Travel Decisions

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Travelers and airport visitors searching for critical airport information – including parking locations and prices, current weather conditions and forecasts, and arrival and departure updates – no longer have to scour the Internet to stay informed. A new online travel resource, powered by FlightView, simplifies airport logistics for travelers and the individuals picking them up by offering the most essential day-of-travel airport information all in one spot.

“But savvy travelers and airport visitors will take their preparation one step further by reviewing parking lot locations and prices before leaving for the airport, enabling quicker, more informed travel decisions.”

FlightView’s newest travel resource, available at FlightView.com, guides day-of-travel decision making by arming Web visitors with the information needed for a more productive airport experience, including:

• Airport Parking Locations and Rates. Travelers and the individuals picking them up can now save valuable time by checking parking locations, viewing and comparing rates, reading user facility reviews and even booking a spot online – all before leaving for the airport.
• Current Conditions and Weather Forecasts. Travelers can check current weather details for departing and arriving airports – and any connecting cities along the way – as well as view seven-day forecasts.
• Arrival and Departure Flight Boards. Users can view a list of current arriving and departing flights at top airports in the U.S. and Canada.
• Airport Delay Maps. Users can check FlightView’s customer-favorite delay map to access airport delays locally and nationwide.

“Checking their flight status is one of the most common things people do before leaving for the airport,” said Mike Benjamin, CEO of FlightView. “But savvy travelers and airport visitors will take their preparation one step further by reviewing parking lot locations and prices before leaving for the airport, enabling quicker, more informed travel decisions.”
