Searching for Travel Information

Weather information is important to travelers, as is information about flight delays and such. Fortunately, you can use the main Google search page to search for this information, just as you did with weather forecasts.

All you have to do is enter a flight number into the Google search box. For example, to find out the status of Delta flight 1151, enter dl1151. As you can see in Figure 4.5, Google displays the real-time status of the specified flight, courtesy of the FlightStats website (www.flightstats.com). Click the Details link to view even more detailed flight information.
