Can someone recommend a good app for OS X that allows you to input flight info, hotels, meeting schedules, etc?

I can't seem to find any business trip/travel planning application for OS X.

Interesting idea... if there isn't one already, I'll look into developing one.
I bring order to chaos. You are in chaos windows, you are the contradiction, a bug wishing to be an OS.

I use either Travelocity or MapQuest in conjunction with my iCal. I don't know of any dedicated apps for planning trips.

- That would be awesome. What I'm looking for (and can't find) is an app that has the following features:

a US map with the different time zones shown, the ability to input appointments/meetings and set alarms for them, the ability to input flight information (and perhaps a way to link them up to the flight info on the sites of major US/Canadian/Int'l airlines), hotel information, etc.

I think this would be the perfect app for the business traveler.

Route 66 covers the directions, but it would be great to be able to input flight info, meetings, etc.

I think iCal does this. Or you could check out Entourage or one of the other personal schedulers.
