While virtual interlining provides genuine utility in the aviation and travel space by optimizing flight itineraries, this submission is severely weakened by heavily exaggerated and unsupported claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', highly vague market cap references). Due to the lack of verifiable traction, undefined audience metrics, and very poor overall response quality, the project falls into the minimal traction category.

Description
GIS creates unique flight combinations using machine learning. Its algorithms compose low cost, virtually interlined itineraries out of the inventory supplied. It enables Airlines, OTAs and Consolidators to offer new routes and extend their inventory. The itineraries created by GIS have lower prices, which is an opportunity for additional margin. This results in the creation of interlined flights that are uniquely competitive in the open marketplace.
