Unfortunately no Safari plug-in at this time or in the near future if at all according to what I've been able to ascertain. <a href="http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/30/flight-track-my-personal-travel-assistant/" target="_blank">David Pogue</a> also blogs about another app called <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id296240199?mt=8" target="_blank">Flight Track</a> that helps him out in his travels.

I planned a month-long trip to Europe last year with TripIt (http://www.tripit.com/). It was a great way to keep things organized, help with planning, put flights and hotel details into my online calendar, etc. It looks as if they have an iPhone app that shows the data on the web site as well.
