Scotty has never heard of Viva Air? What is the world coming to?..:) Anyways..you know as well as I do not all sites are perfect. I've never checked it against 'foreign' destinations/airline flights exclusively, but for flights to or from or within the US it's a great starting place to find the schedule/fares and availability before heading to an airline website. Before the merger, TWA was tied into whatever itn used. I've seen one other airline with the same format as itn, but can't recall who right now.
