Glide-Powered Travel Tracker Built in 48 Hours

When a global client needed to coordinate the arrival of 200+ people from different locations—just 48 hours before the first landings—we delivered a fully functional travel management app using Glide. The platform allowed real-time tracking of flights, automated status updates, and instant notifications via WhatsApp.

The system integrated with third-party APIs to match live flight data and booking records, ensuring a smooth flow from arrival to hotel check-in.

Thanks to Glide, we built a fast, flexible, and fully operational system in just 2 days—no code, no chaos.

The client was organizing a major project involving more than 200 people flying in from various cities, on different flights and schedules. They had just 48 hours before arrivals began and manual coordination would lead to chaos, missed pickups, and inefficiencies.
