History
The company was founded in 2012 in Montreal.[2]
In 2019, it had 5 million customers.[2]
In September 2019, Dennis Herrera, the city attorney of San Francisco sued the company over hidden fees and other predatory scams.[3] According to the suit, the Better Business Bureau, Federal Trade Commission and the U.S. Department of Transportation received more than 2,000 customer complaints about JustFly and FlightHub in two years — more than any other online travel site.[4]
In 2020, in part to deal with the lawsuit as well as a decline in travel during the COVID-19 pandemic, the company filed bankruptcy under Chapter 15, Title 11, United States Code.[5]
gollark: Turns out nodejs packages *really* love compiling C(++) dependencies from source. So now `npm` is doing that, on my *phone* CPU.
gollark: The backend bit is only 50 lines, so I could probably rewrite it in a cool language like Rust eventually.
gollark: I am beginning to regret using NodeJS for this project, after trying to install it on my phone.
gollark: Except my phone, sadly I don't have one which can run ArchLinuxARM. *Yet*.
gollark: I'm in the fortunate position of not needing any Windows applications, so I just run (arch btw) Linux on all my devices!
