A great aggravation in making flight arrangements is identifying which are the
airlines which fly into a particular city.
Which airlines can you take to get to Champaign, Illinois?
This project involves building a service which collected and displays such
information automatically.
The primary technical challenges are:
- Set up a database of airports with connecting airlines.
- Identify a comprehensive source of this connection information,
and figure out how to scrape/update this data as it changes.
- Generate an appropriate webpage for each city and airline.
- Create an international flying website with proper search capabilities.
