Track flight fare drops and get alerts by email and Telegram

The system checks flight prices regularly and messages you the moment a fare on your tracked routes drops.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each tracked route.

The problem it solves

You booked a flight but have no easy way to know if the price drops afterward, so you miss out on refunds or rebooking savings. Checking fares manually every few days is tedious and easy to forget.

Who it fits

Frequent travelers or travel coordinators who want to catch fare drops on flights they have already booked.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system checks current fares for your tracked routes
  2. It compares the new price against the fare you originally booked
  3. Every price check is logged so you can see the full fare history
  4. If a drop is found, you get an alert by email or Telegram, with bigger drops flagged as higher priority
What you get

Fare drops you'd otherwise miss

You get notified the moment fares drop on the routes you're tracking, so you can act on savings right away.

What you get

A price-drop alert with the savings amount, plus a logged history of fare changes for each tracked route.

What you need

Accounts with flight fare data providers, plus Gmail and Telegram for alerts.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
