I am building an app ecosytem around people waiting in airports either for flights or to be picked up.
I am advertising directly to the people who have downtime between flights, and developing a community around the developers to create apps that are geared and focused on this high-value target market.
We have location based coupons that know, by GPS, when you arrive at any airport in 36 countries. When you land - you are greeted by offers from any retailer in the market, and are given the option to book travel (uber/taxi/shuttle/limo) from the airport to a nearby hotel - we sell the hotel booking as well and make a cut on the room.
We also offer social games for those stuck in airports waiting. Play with people at your gate, on your flight, from your hometown airport or any other place! Again the ads are all from retailers directly around you!
Finally, we even offer a travellers hookup service, so if you want to look for lay-over travelers to hook up with, you can sign-up and hook up. (this product is called 'Laid-Overs' and is our most popular app!

We have an API that people can connect to also!
That sounds very interesting. What is the URL for the site? A preliminary Google search didn't turn up anything...
Its stealth startup idea!
Run with it!
(it was a joke in response to the GP's being upset that great minds were being wasted on improving the Airport pickup experience.)
