What works for you?: Your flight search results will be displayed among your existing scheduled appointments in your calendar. You can decide which flight would accomodate your schedule, at a glance!
Options, Options, Options: Select your personal travel preferences, right within your BlueTie preferences menu. Airlines, passengers, default airports, hotels and more can all be set to return what you are looking for with every search.
Everything in one place: Once you determine the details of your trip and book with Orbitz, the details of your trip are added to your calendar, and the confirmation email is sent to your account. Could it be any easier?
The best part- VACATION!: Does looking at your busy calendar wear you out? Schedule your personal vacation within your calendar, and take some time off- you deserve it! Just don't forget to turn on your "Out of Office" message, and let everyone know that you're in a tropical location far far away...
Did you know?: You can customize the view of your results, and sort according to what criteria is important to you? Well, you can! Just another feature that is all about you!
Quick Add: You can also begin your travel search by using the Quick Add feature of the Calendar. For example, if you enter "flight to Boston", your search window will pop-up, with your custom preferences already populated and ready to find your trip of choice!
