misc: flying with cortana

if you’re a windows phone 8.1 user, you’re probably in love with cortana already. she is a fantastic organizer! despite all that, sometimes, she fails to understand your flight itinerary, especially on multi-leg flights. she might capture just one leg of the flight. so how do you fix?

i looked for a way to do this but wasn’t able to find any well-documented procedures, so here’s my shot at it.

• have cortana search for the flight information. in my test, i’m using aa1947 as an example.
• click the Show AA 1947 updates link. this will add it to your itinerary.

if the date isn’t right, don’t worry. you can change it.

• switch over to the interests section.
• under travel, you should be able to find your flight information. click on it.

• under the Flight date section, simply choose which date you’re interested in.

now cortana will track that flight for you.
