Tripeedo: Command line for travel (from Wundrbar) (ajaxian.com)

I thought this would be more like SABRE/Easy SABRE, which I loved.

This just isn't a useful tool for me in its present form -- I've never had any trouble typing in my search parameters on the various travel websites and this seems to be all that this does.

commandline + flights available + airfares would be super valuable to me though.


For real! Imagine being able to pipe to grep etc. Actually if they have any sort of api that takes the command string and returns json surely that wouldn't be that hard to hack together.

[after using the site for a bit] Nevermind I guess it just primes your search for you (still cool) and then sends you to the site itself. I was thinking it would actually return a data set of prices per carrier.


As far as I call tell Wundrbar is a complete rip-off of YubNub:

Nice-- would love to see it work for car rental, too...


bookmarked!
