I fell on this by following the bread crumbs..

My wife put together an airline trip. She uses FlightTracker Pro, which is a good interface to airports and airlines and available flights.

She wanted me to send her flight information to her assistant so she could make the reservations.

With FlightTracker Pro, this is difficult to do all in one nice package. So, I sent an individual email for each flight. (Relatively easy from FlightTracker Pro)

I noticed there was a TripIt application/database/3rdParty/etc interface through FlightTracker Pro. So I checked up on that.

TripIt looks interesting, but it wants too much information - contacts, passwords, etc.

So, I thought it would be better to put together a private website with a private database where she could dole out the information more carefully.

Clicking around, I found this list..

--------
Will OZ make this easier? Will I still have to do oauth, because presumably FlightTracker Pro does oauth?

Is there an easier way to accomplish what I want to do?

Long term (in years) this might make things better, but it will take a while (if ever) for major providers to adopt Oz and make it available as an alternative to OAuth.
