Hey fastlaners,
While searching for flights the other day I noticed that it's not always clear when you're traveling to a location with a different timezone, which makes it confusing to imagine the flight time in relation to the timezone you're going from/to. It's almost never clear and you have to take the extra step to look it up and decide accordingly.
So I thought of a simple visual way of representing the flight information on these websites that would be intuitive and informative.
Now before I go into making a mockup to see how people respond to it, I was actually wondering if it's something that I can sell to websites like skyscanner and so on. What kind of business deal can I expect to have regarding this feature? I have no idea how I might be able to sell it, what terms, price, etc... Does anybody have any experience in licensing/selling front-end web widgets?
For example, if it were something suited for e-commerce I would sell it as a Shopify app.
Regarding the idea in general:
Positive points:
Weak points:
I appreciate your feedback

Regarding the idea in general:
Positive points:
- Easy to prototype and implement
- Haven't seen it anywhere
Weak points:
- Being a simple feature makes the barrier of entry lower of the websites to develop it themselves
- The need is not very clear. Further research is needed
- Since it's a graphical widget it might require a lot of customizability to fit each website's graphical interface
I appreciate your feedback
