Last September, we started a thread about flight timetables that several of the major airlines are making available in Pocket PC Format. At that time, I think we knew about downloadable timetables (in various levels of useability) for American, Delta, USAirways, British Airways and a few others. Now, AirTran Airways has joined the ranks.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/adrian/airtran.jpg" /><br /><br />I really like the way AirTran and a couple of others, like Delta Airlines, have implemented this. Basically, every time you ActiveSync, these applications load the most recent timetables onto your Pocket PC. The data is viewed via a separate application (as opposed to a PDF file, like some airlines provide), so the data is formatted precisely for the Pocket PC. <br /><br />I don't travel often enough to necessarily need up-to-date timetables all the time. Even so, I always keep them on my device so that when I do travel, I'm sure to have all the information I might need in the event my plans have to change.

I use the avantgo channels setup for British Airways (https://my.avantgo.com/account/edit_sub.html?sub_id=617) and Qantas (https://my.avantgo.com/account/edit_sub.html?sub_id=304).

The Qantas one is particularly good as you can choose domestic only or domestic and international or just contact details for different countries.
