Flighty – Live Flight Tracker

Edit update- shocker. My airline app was the issue. 😑 Edit Jan 2024- the app stopped syncing with my calendar but when the app updated two weeks ago it was fixed. Now iOS has updated again and the app OS back to not updating. I have a ton on my schedule and would like if it was synced again. I tried to send a message through the website but it said I needed to report issues through the app. When I tried to do that it just kept making a zip file without ever giving me a way to email anyone so I’ve resorted to deducting a start and hoping someone can reach out with a solution. I love this app! Since my airline banned being able to use some 3rd party apps I’ve really struggled with finding something that keeps me up to date on my flights. The only drawbacks are: I would love to see this available for for Apple Watch, I would love to be able to save individual trips. I know I can see past trips but they are all just grouped together as a long list of flights. It would be nice to see what I did on a three day work block a month ago. I love that this app keeps track of my inbound plane and when it’s delayed. I also love all the info on the aircraft like it’s age. This app is well worth the money for pro if you fly a lot. It gives me alternate routes if it looks like I won’t make a flight and I love know what gate we are going into as well as baggage claim info that I can give to my passengers!

This app is amazing. So much so I gladly pay for the Pro subscription. However, there’s one major flaw. When you plug in a flight that has two flights under the same flight number (out and backs/round trip flights) you can’t select the right one! It automatically assumes which one you want, and you can’t change it. All you can do is delete it. Come on guys! This should have been thought of. ): **Edit: This issue only happens when I search just the flight number. You can search by city pair and it finds the correct flight. Upgrading my rating since the amazing developers messaged back and clarified some. Thanks guys! 🛫💛 Response to developers: First, THANK YOU for replying back and asking for more info! That speaks volumes. If you’d like, share your email address (unless it’s somewhere I’m not seeing) and I’ll send screenshots. I work for a US airline and we have a lot of departures from the HUB, then the return back to the HUB has the same flight number. For example, AAL1782 DFW to MSP, then MSP back to DFW with the same flight number. Every time I try to add the flight before either of the trips has started or been completed, the app will only show one of the trips, not both. And it doesn’t give an option to dive deeper into the flight so you can pick the right leg. That being said, I did not realize you could search by city pair. I just tried that and it does find the right legs depending on which departure and arrival airport is searched. So it’s just when searching by only the flight number that issue shows up. Sorry for the long explanation. Again, thank you so much for responding! Literally the best app ever!

I travel about 180 days a year and have tried countless flight tracking apps, but Flighty is by far the best. One of my favorite features is how seamlessly it integrates with my calendar—once I input my flight details, my schedule is automatically updated, saving me a ton of time and keeping me organized even during hectic travel weeks. Flighty is also linked directly to the airlines, so it automatically updates your flight information in the app whenever there are changes. This includes delays, gate changes, or cancellations, ensuring you always have the most accurate and current details. The best feature, in my opinion, is the gate information, especially for connecting flights. It shows your arrival gate, estimates the time needed to get to your next gate, and even provides an average travel time with a clear graph. This makes it easy to see whether you have a long connection to relax or a short one that requires you to move quickly. It’s like having a personal travel assistant guiding you through the airport. Overall, Flighty has made traveling smoother, less stressful, and much more organized. For anyone who flies frequently, it’s an essential app that delivers real-time updates, practical guidance, and peace of mind.
