Airport Information Web Site to Help Alleviate Holiday Travel Woes

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Aerochannel.com is a unique day-of-flight service designed to help airline travelers get to their flight on time. More than 4.5 million passengers are traveling this Thanksgiving holiday. While that number is down about 10% from last year, most flights are still expected to be full due to the reduced the number of available flights. The airlines' schedule reductions means a missed flight could have been the last chance to get to your destination on time. Flyers should expect full parking lots, longer check-in and security lines, and busy terminals. AeroChannel's distinctive "How Long will It Take" feature gives airline passengers an easy-to-read timeline to help them make it to the gate on time.

"AeroChannel is all about getting you to your flight. We give you traffic, parking, check-in, and security times," says AeroChannel founder Sheppard Kaufman. "Our site is about helping the traveler make their airport experience as smooth and informed as possible. We offer features like 'Keep Me Updated' which lets users get e-mail updates about their flight and airport conditions."

AeroChannel will be providing detailed coverage of the major U.S. airports throughout the Thanksgiving weekend. Updates will be available both on the main website at http://www.aerochannel.com and on the AeroChannel mobile site at http://aero2go.com.

AeroChannel's coverage comes from a variety of sources including AeroChannel's on-site airport staff, data feeds, and AeroChannel Tipsters. "Our system can cover any airport in the world, but we don't have people on the ground in every location, so the AeroChannel user community is a great resource for us and each other. We love hearing from our Tipsters," says Mr. Kaufman.

Don't just make sure your flight's on time; make sure you're on time. With real-time updates at select major airports throughout the holiday weekend, AeroChannel will help you reach your destination with plenty of time to spare. For a complete list of airports receiving additional Thanksgiving coverage, go to: http://www.aerochannel.com/features/7463947.
