Thanks @bentossell for posting about Instalocate. A brief background about why we created Instalocate (https://m.me/instalocate):
People are always nervous of missing their flights due to heavy traffic or huge security check lines. Traveling with kids and a delayed flight is a perfect example of disaster! There are so many things that can go wrong. What people want is a friend who is knowledgeable and is available whenever you want. Instalocate is that trusted friend – your personal travel assistant. It is like “Google Now++ for Travel”.
Instalocate is an AI powered digital personal assistant to make your journey comfortable. It is always there to answer your questions in an instant. You can talk to Instalocate within Facebook only. No need to install a separate app.
Just share your flight details and it will handle the rest. It predicts when you might need something and sends the contextual information automatically. It informs you if your flight is getting delayed. If you are wondering if the airport has free Wi-Fi, just ask your assistant. If your family is worried about you, the assistant can pinpoint your exact location in the air. They don’t have to anxiously wait outside the airport checking their phones again and again! After reaching your destination, your cab will be waiting for you.

This is really good, I believe most of my travel use cases are going to be conversational with bots
@shashankkr9 - thanks Shashank. Yes, frequent travellers really like the form factor. They are already on Facebook and they find it very convenient to get all the flight updates on Facebook only!

Just putting the flight number in Google will give you all you need to know...

Add the ability to call the airline on my behalf when I'm going to miss a connecting flight and/or departing flight gets canceled and get me rebooked on the next available flight so I don't have to stand in line like all the other poor souls and you got yourself an award winning app
@codymclain - definitely! We will add the functionality where Instalocate automatically takes care of your flight if you miss a connection or your departing flight. Our goal is to save your time so that you can enjoy your travel!
Excellent execution what have you planned for the future... I.e. with respect to acquiring, engaging and retaining users who interact with instalocate bot for the first time...
