Abstract
Embodiments relate to a system, computer product, and method for identifying a potential travel companion. A travel companion application is provided for installation on a remote subscriber computer. Upon entering travel data for a specified trip, a remote server accesses a memory databank of travel companion recommendations and compares the recommendations with the travel data in order to determine whether there exists matching travel data with a potential travel companion. In response to the matching identification, a formatted travel alert is communicated over a wireless communication channel to a destination address. The alert activates an application that both causes display of the alert on a remote device, and provides a URL with connection to the associated data source.
