Seriously, who else's head is wrecked when you hear about the latest Ryanair or Aer Lingus sale and you have to trawl through flights to try and find cheap seats? If there were RSS parameters then you could have tailored information coming to you. I might not subscribe to feeds for flights to London, but I would subscribe to flights to London under €10, espeicially with my brother moving over there. I think the flight case is a really good example for this. Lots of people are always looking to get away for a cheap weekend break. Rather than checking websites every week or two, let RSS/Webfeeds do the work for you. Yeah, but the whole beauty of RSS/Webfeeds is that you can subscribe and unsubscribe.

When I want to book a flight I'll book it - but I don't want a daily stream of special offers. I do however want to be able to find the best deal in the shortest amount of time - something I don't see RSS as being able to help out with. Interested to hear your view of this? Would you really subscribe to feeds for flights to London? I’m not sure that’s really going to be a great use of RSS.
