Follow Santa's Sleigh on Christmas Eve With the CheapTickets(R) SantaTracker 'Twas the Night before Christmas and all Through the House, Not a Creature Was Sleeping - They Were Tracking Santa with a Mouse! NORTH POLE, Dec. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- CheapTickets(R), a leading travel Web site, announced today that its exclusive FlightTracker service on http://www.cheaptickets.com/ will be used for a special SantaTracker for the upcoming holiday. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20040519/NYW104LOGO ) Kids eager to know Santa Claus' whereabouts on Christmas Eve can join the elves at mission control as they track Santa. Thanks to real-time North Pole sleigh data (actually Federal Aviation Administration flight data used by CheapTickets that allows consumers to track the status and progress of flights throughout the continental U.S.), CheapTickets can show Santa's location as well as his sleigh speed, altitude and the direction he's heading. The only thing kids won't be able to see is what he's bringing to their house! Parents and children alike can log onto http://www.cheaptickets.com/ to enjoy this fun and educational service. Santa's flight route runs live from 6 p.m. EST on Christmas Eve (Dec. 24) through 6 a.m. EST on Christmas Day (Dec. 25). Our only recommendation is for users of the SantaTracker feature to make sure they're sleeping when Santa arrives so that no one misses out on any presents!
