I travel over a 100k miles a year for work and have a lot of down time sitting at airports and on the plane with no wifi, so I thought I'd start a new travel related side project that I only work on while I'm at an airport or on a plane (20 hours a week or so).<p>I want to build something that will actually benefit travellers and not just myself, so I'd love to know any pain points you have or any features you wish existed when you are planning your trips. I'm open to any and all ideas.
Single point WiFi database. List of networks, their cost, what services they allow you onto (HTTP, any TCP, VPN, etc), their speed, et al. Have it be filterable, so if I am sitting in airport X then I can look for "WiFi which supports VPN tunneling."<p>Just like Amazon's product catalogue but with WiFi networks.
Day planning that is aware of open & closing times, with on the fly schedule adjustments. E.g. behind schedule after visiting A, traffic prevents visiting B, too early to visit C, find alternate D that is worthwhile, open and reachable from A.
Flexibility. I always start using travel sites but their formats are always so rigid that I'm forced to change the way I do things or I am forced to stop using it.<p>I always go back to excel.
