Farecast is a great service — here’s why:
- Clever use of free data (costs a ton to process this much data, but the data itself is free)
- Deliver the right information (will fare’s increase or decrease) at the right time (at the point of search or transaction)
- Leverages consumers fear of overpaying.
However, will your average consumer spend enough time to grok how this works — not sure about that one. Some good marketing folks will be needed on this one.
