User returns → Prompt: "Restore data from [time]?" → Click Yes → Data restored!

Caching

User 1 searches YOW→YVR on Feb 15 → API call (500ms) → Cached
User 2 searches YOW→YVR on Feb 15 → Cache hit! (25ms) → 20x faster!

Trip History

User completes estimate → Auto-saved to history
User presses Ctrl+H → Sees all 20 recent trips
User clicks trip → Form populated instantly

Dark Mode

User clicks 🌙 → Dark mode enabled → Preference saved
User returns tomorrow → Still in dark mode → Consistent experience
