FlightTrack Pro- Live Tripit Flight Status Tracker $9.99
The Unofficial Apple Weblog likes it!
The Tripit.com app appears to be less focused on flights but it makes it easy to coordinate hotel, rental car and other travel plans and... Wait For it... It's FREE! Reading the TUAW review of Tripit.com and the reader comments I get the impression that the most cost effective combination is the $4.99 FlightTrack and Tripit.com.
It's "apps" like these that convinced me to invest in an iPhone...

Or is hat a limited time offer? Just a little above that "FREE" you say it's $9.99. My usual limit is $0.99! 
Especially for an application I'm not likely to use. I gave up traveling when they stopped paying me to do it! 
Unfortunately, that was way to long after it stopped being fun or even comfortable...Anyway, glad you've found something useful!

I thought that being an xpilot you might be vaguely interested...

Judy might be interested, however, she plans her flights very precisely and watches for the best time to make the purchase (usually for her and another lady who has trouble even using a cell phone...) and the hotels are either provided by her host or pre-arranged for a convention somewhere.
Still, FEE is one of my favorite prices!
