Part flight tracker, part travel companion, and part crystal ball, this first-class travel app makes every step of your journey a little easier. Here’s how...
1. Import flight details with ease
Forward your travel confirmation email or connect your TripIt account to see all the details in Flighty. Or sync your calendar and the app will import past and future flights. (Flighty lets you manually search for flight numbers too.) Tap a flight to see continually updated departure times and gate info, weather at your destination, and an estimate of the chances your flight will land on time, based on the last few months’ on-time performance.
Don’t miss: Know which airport a loved one is taking off from but nothing else? Search by route to find their flight. Share your own flight info with friends in the form of a live flight tracker or post a route map with a customizable boarding pass sticker to social media.
2. Keep tabs on your aircraft
The app’s “Where’s My Plane?” feature gives you a peek behind the air-traffic curtain. See the cities where your plane landed before arriving at your airport, as well as the plane’s age, first flight, and detailed timetable.
Don’t miss: Flighty can ping you as soon as your pilot files a flight plan. Take a look to see your upcoming flight path.
3. Prepare for takeoff
The app’s Airport Intelligence crunches real-time data about weather, airport staffing, and runway closures across 14,000 cities worldwide so you can get ahead of any disruptions. On the tarmac, check where you are in the takeoff line, follow your taxi path to the runway, and see flights circling above you.
Don’t miss: Tap the Live Activities button for a flight to see up-to-the-minute info on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island as early as three hours prior to your trip. CarPlay integration keeps your flight info front and center as you drive to the airport.
4. Make that tight connection
The minute you land, Flighty can send you a notification with your arrival and departure gates. Terminal maps label each gate, so you can figure out the most efficient walking/sprinting path.
Don’t miss: Need to take a later flight? Tap Alternatives on a flight’s page to see upcoming options.
5. Automate your travel journal
Flighty tracks stats from all your past flights. See how many trips you took in a year and miles flown in your lifetime. You can also view how many hours you’ve lost to delays and the aircraft type you’ve flown on the most.
Don’t miss: At the end of every year, Flighty serves up a spiffy annual report—perfect for that humblebrag on social media.
