Use this APP to calculate the optimal time to check your seat allocation for flights in four easy steps! 1/ Select the Date and Time of your Flight. 2/ Select the Departure State of your Flight. 3/ Easily create a Calendar Reminder using the APP. 4/ Log into the Frequent Flyer Website at the Calculated Time and Select the best seats available. Note, depending upon unknown variables you may need to wait one minute after the calculated time for seats to be released! Note, the T-80 APP uses your devices current timezone to present the calculated T-80 date/time based upon the departure state's timezone of your selected flight. Additionally, the APP will also take into account any daylight saving differences between your current timezone and the departure state's timezone.
