Really interesting. Apparently there's a greater than 50% chance of a delay or cancelation flying from SFO to NYC on Jetblue at 11am (see http://flightsphere.com/flight-r...). It would be useful if Hipmunk, my go-to flight search engine, included this information or used it in their "agony" rating. cc @alexisohanian, @roxyyoung, @guymorita
I've been thinking about some ideas for a side project relating to flight data, but I haven't done any research into where that data might come from. Would you mind sharing the source?
@rrhoover thanks! If I get some traction I will add booking functionality. Based on user conversations I have a thesis that there is a certain type of traveller who only cares about reliability. These travelers are somewhat price insensitive, fly for business, and travel at least once a week.
