The email sim doesn't allow booking but should still work to demo functionality. And it's not geo-limited. What are you seeing?

For me the demo pulled up flights, but in USD, I'd need it to be localised to be useful. Airlines also tend to present different prices for different locations/currencies so I doubt this would be as simple as a UI change (though that would still go a long way!).

  Yes, the demo doesn't localize results. And Beta doesn't have currency support just yet but it's on the list. Beyond the price differences, airlines also grant scoped 'ticketing authority' in jurisdictions (eg. can only sell these tickets in EU or US+Canada etc).

    How is this enforced? Purely IP-based? Sounds like we now need a VPN when buying tickets.

  Yes, the internet did in fact drop the ball. Fix is live.

    Still getting the "dropped the ball" and I get every time more curious to try it.

        It works now, it ust have been an issue with the connection. It works as in: I receive an output. But it doesn't find the correct flights. My prompt was "Find a flight from X to Y on the Z of February 2025, the goal is to maximize the time spent in any layover (if the layover starts before 11 am). I prefer flying Delta but this is not mandatory".

Sorry I didn't log back in. I kept trying to do flights from Adelaide (A capital city, but a smaller) to Sydney and back. It couldn't find anything.
