Instabuy! Brilliant - know what’s going on before everyone else

Instabuy! Brilliant - know what’s going on before everyone else. Sourcing data direct from flight plans and similar, Flighty tells you what’s changing, how the timing is going, the assigned Gate, even change of tail numbers. Really helpful to know this sort of thing ahead of the airport announcements. Just buy it, totally worth it if you fly more than a few times a year… and probably even if you don’t fly often at all! Highly recommended.

Would have been 10 out of 10 if it didn’t cost the same as a small city in Africa

It’s a great app. It’s have glitches and bugs from time to time or it forgets to alert me. It’s not perfect. For that reason I’m hesitant to buy the full package and it’s extremely expensive. I could justify $200 but $500 is really pushing it.

How easy it is to track flights and add flights

All I had to do to add a flight is I sent the ticket to the email that the airline sent me it also had the return ticket and after 2 mins I got a notification from flighty saying that my flights had been added thank you so much for this app

Great app but to expensive

Find the free version still useful enough to continue using after 1 month already. Not sure if I will loose interest due to the lack of features available on the free version. What I would like to see added is the ability to forward my itinerary email or pdf so the app can populate fields within my history.

Beautiful all but….

I love this app’s design. It’s really nice and I love the notification screen. The stats of my history are great. However, I’m having some problems as it slows down my phone a lot even with nothing else open and my search function often stops working too. I think there’s a little bug there to fix.

Best App for Cabin Crew

The app is hands down the best app for airline crew as it provides the gates, inbound aircraft information and delay notifications even before we get that information it is apart of my everyday use at work and I highly recommend all crew to download this app.

From a decade of Flightradar24 to Flighty Lifetime—The new gold standard

After over a decade of using Flightradar24, I’ve officially made the switch. I’ve enjoyed Flighty enough to invest in the Lifetime membership, and it has quickly become my most essential travel tool.
While other apps might be more "feature-dense" in terms of raw data, Flighty is significantly more intuitive. It provides the right information at exactly the right time—especially during the "chaos" of transit. The new import feature is a game-changer, making it much easier to cut over years of historical data from other platforms.
That said, as a power user, there are a few "pro" refinements that would make this app perfect:
Connection Logic: When editing flights with the same PNR, it would be great to have "Next/Previous" buttons to batch-edit connections without jumping back to the main list.
Data Integrity: A tool to convert and "lint" CSV data (specifically from legacy sites like Flightdiary) would help clean up corrupt historical records during import.
Historical Support: I’d love the ability to add "placeholder" flights for defunct carriers (like old Virgin America flights) that aren't in the database yet, perhaps marked as "to be validated."
Codeshare vs. Operator: It would be a huge win to track both the Marketing Flight Number (important for status credits/points) and the Operating Carrier (essential for aircraft details).
Loyalty Integration: Adding fields for Frequent Flyer programs, anniversaries, and status credit tracking would make this the ultimate all-in-one flight log.
Flighty is already the most polished flight tracker on the market. With a few more tweaks for those of us tracking decades of history, it will be untouchable.
Keep up the incredible work, Crew!

App bug and glitchy

I paid annual subscription of the app and it uas not failed until two months ago. A glitch or bag started to show up when you expand/drag the details of the flights summary to reveal the flight paths. I’m hoping the developers are doing in the background to resolve the bugs or else I will have to discontinue my subscription

Gone down hill

Was an amazing app when it first came out. Now it’s buggy as heck. Repeated notification for the same thing. Notifications for phantom flights. Wrong plane information in the app. Glad the qantas/virgin have upped their game in the app department and has made flighty mostly redundant.

Actually could have used this 6.5 years ago and let’s just say that I think honest applications that provide a great way to plan travel and also visualise the journey, can also help see alternative routes and help people connect and safely navigate from multiple starting points!

Honestly really useful

Flighty is a great app if you’re flying and want everything in one place. The design feels very polished and works perfectly with iOS, especially with Live Activities and Dynamic Island. Being able to quickly check gate info, delays, and flight progress at a glance is super helpful.
The tracking is accurate and notifications are useful without being overwhelming. It definitely takes some of the stress out of travelling, especially on busy days or when you have connections.
The Pro version is best if you travel often, but even for a short trip it adds a lot of value. Overall, a really well-made app that does exactly what it promises.

Great app, terrible in-app pricing model

There is no doubt that Flighty is one of the best travel tracking apps out there, but the only way to get all the Pro features is to sign up to what initially appears to be a monthly plan but is in-fact “Monthly billed annually”.
So many people do not travel every single month so is a waste.

I like the weekly subscription for flights…

I wish flighty had a system that would allow you to "subscribe" automatically when you add a flight to your calendar and then unsubscribe for you before the next rollover after the trip ends via an opt-in service that uses AI to analyse your calendar. I’m just dreaming.
MoganJones97

Disappointing for a paid app

This app is nowhere near where it should be for the price. Having a nice UI is not enough. Gate and luggage carousel numbers show up tens of minutes after they’re already visible on airport screens or in free apps. The flight path often doesn’t match reality. When I actually need the information, it’s simply not there.
I paid for a year on promotion, and even at that discount, it doesn’t deliver value. Free apps like FlightRadar24 and FlightStats outperform it on every metric that matters. Unless major improvements happen fast, I won’t be renewing.

Good, but could be better

Being a long time App in the Air user, had to switch over to Flighty when AITA closed down. Similar, but Flighty needs to build integration with frequent flyer programs. When FF flights and miles were updated, everything was automatically updated in AITA. Too easy. The only import option aside from calendar being email in Flighty is annoyingly manual…

The best app for flying

I’ve used this app for over a year now and it is so amazing if there is a delay or if the flight if arriving early it tells you immediately. Just in general it is so reliable it can tell how how many days the flight is away and also how how the flight is/how long your layover is there I would 1000% recommend this app I’ve never had any problems with it!!!

Unnecessary alerts

Nonstop gate change alerts the day before departure, especially when you have more than one flight on that day. I DO NOT CARE about the gate until the day of departure. Annoying and unnecessary as they’re zero value until about an hour before departure, as long as the terminal is the same. Add ability to customise when alerts should be received.

A great app marred by ads (Mac version)

Let me start by saying, I really like the fundamentals of this app. At its core, it’s well designed, looking both great and satisfying its core use.
But if you don’t sign up for Pro, it just spams you with ads especially if you leave the app running on you mac. I must’ve close 12 ad windows this morning. Yeah I get it, there is a Pro subscription version. I don’t fly much (one flight a year maybe) and so this is mostly to keep track of the occasional flight of my partner. I would pay $5-10 for this privilege with a limit on yearly flights. But I can’t justify a sub because I’m not a business man who flies even once a month. Limit the free version to 10 flights a year (connecting flights on a single journey should count as one), then charge me $10, because I don’t care about your pro features enough to sub.

Fantastic multi-device flight tracking

Flighty is hands-down the best flight tracking app I’ve used. My wife is a flight attendant, and this app makes it effortless to keep up with her schedule. The level of detail is incredible—real-time updates, gate changes, and even historical flight data all in one place. The ability to sync across Mac and iOS means I can check her flights on any device. It’s fast, reliable, and packed with useful insights. If you need to track flights (or just love aviation data), Flighty is worth every cent!

Perhaps… rail tracking too?

Brilliant app and have been a proud subscriber for years, never disappointing. On my most recent trips I was also travelling between cities and countries via rail instead of flying, then I was wondering, how good it would be if Flighty could also expand real time tracking to railway in Europe, and/or south East Asian countries with expansive rail networks (e.g. China, Japan, Taiwan etc), just a thought

Fantastic app but data quality issues.

Fantastic app. Lots of love put into this and it shows. It really requires a premium subscription to get the best of the experience which is understandable. My main issue is data quality. Several instances of bad data such as missing gates, boarding times etc. I’ve also gotten warnings about seat and plane changes etc., only to find it’s fake news and irrelevant. A bit disappointed. The data lets the app down. Hopefully they can figure out how to improve the data.

Good but not

Good user interface.
The real time tracking for major airlines is good. Regional airlines not so much but understandable.
What is really disappointing when there is data missing, and a data request is submitted (to correct your statistics). Don’t expect it to be fix straight away but months go on and still no action. This inaction renders the statistics as incorrect and useless.

The Absolute Best

Flighty is head and shoulders THE best app I’ve ever bought. I paid a few hundred dollars for the lifetime licence and haven’t for one minute regretted the investment. As a frequent flyer, the accurate, up to the minute information has made my life so much easier. I don’t know how they do it, but they do. If you fly a lot then don’t hesitate. Buy it.

Great app, but needs to allow manual input for past flights

I am enjoying the Flighty app. It would be a 5 star if it would allow to enter past flights manually. I kept track of these flights and I am not able to enter most of them. They state that they’ll add this feature or at least are considering doing so, hope this will happen soon!

Terrible data

This app is incredibly slow with getting updated data in regards to delays. I am not sure what sources it uses but they are not good enough. Quickly googling the flight number has better information 99% of the time. Making reports in the app get you nowhere. I have made about 10 support issues and not received an email back once.
There have been times when my flight isn’t even available to be added. In contrast up in the air and other apps I’ve used actually have correct data… the design of the app is great but the best design in the world is useless if it can’t even function and do what it’s being advertised to do.
It would be a great app if this were the case.

Best companion app

I travel semi frequently for both work and leisure and Flighty is an absolute life saver! It makes the travel experience so much better by getting a true understanding of what is going on. The new feautures looking at airport trends at the time are incredibly useful - eg Sydney airport is often on single runway operations which slow everything down. It’s useful to know about these impacts ahead of time rather than be guessing what might be happening. Thanks Flighty Team!

Almost perfect

The world is awash with myraid apps that exploit the fact that, through some fantastic quirk of history, a bunch of flight data is essentially publicly available. Flighty is head and shoulders above everything else in actually using this data to build a compelling, useful product, and one that's ACTUALLY nice to use.
I'm dinging one star because I'd love to be able to associate a flight with someone's actual name, or better yet, a contact, so Flighty would tell me *who's* flight is delayed, *who's* about to land, etc. Instead, Flighty intentionally locks this functioanlity behind its 'Flighty Friends' function, which requires the 'friend' also subscribe to Flighty, and it's pretty blatant about it ("To add a friend's name to a flight, they must share it from Flighty"). I just want to be able to label a flight. Instead, it feels like I'm being exposed to a 'growth-hacker' marketer's slimy brainchild. The worst kind, too, because it doesn't actually act as a deterrent to me adding the flights, it just makes my experience worse. Flighty has to be more aware of the fact that it's a premium application, and that there are many people in my life to which there's a precisely 0% chance of me recommending a fancy-pants 'you've gotta fly a lot for it to be worth it' flight tracking app. I'm certainly not alone.

A favourite app

With all the travel I do I rely on Flighty. I love how it updated my calendar and gets the time
zones right. And how it keeps me up to date on the flight takes the guesswork out of flying. Highly recommend if you are a frequent flyer.

The best flight tracker and necessary for anyone flying nowadays

Flighty is genuinely great. It’s ui design unparalleled, it’s feels native to iOS and it’s premium’s version usage of live activities and Dynamic Island are beautiful and extremely useful at a glance. I have recommended this to countless friends and family member's with overwhelming praise for the app.
Now for my few negatives. The first time I’ve travelled overseas I decided to buy a week of pro. It’s was great and I loved all the features it came with. However, to no fault of the app (but it’s database) my gate numbers didn’t appear, which was disappointing but was the first time it had happened in my long time using the app. Other then feature requests many people have asked for and are likely coming, this app will only get greater then it already is.

Consistently missing or wrong flight information

This app has the best interface out of any app but unfortunately, the flight information is consistently missing or wrong for me, international and domestic. For each flight and at each airport, the app never showed gate number, or any notifications such as flight boarding. The flight status showed the flight was taxiing and overdue arrival well after arrival and never updates. It never showed baggage carousel number either. This is with the paid Pro version too. It’s a shame because this app used to work a lot better and now, as good as it looks, it’s next to useless and not worth paying for.

makes it easy for friends to know updated flight times

Share to friends or family and they will not only get your flight details, but they will also update in real time, all after just one quick tap from you

Better than the airline apps

If there is a change to your flight or a cancellation, you’ll hear about it on Flighty before you’ll hear about it from the airline itself, even if that cancellation is months ahead of the flight. I wish I’d discovered this brilliant app sooner.

Unreliable data feed

Beautifully presented but inaccurate compared to TripIt. As an example on a recent trip flighty listed my cancelled flight as ‘on time’ for almost 2 hours after it was cancelled. On the return flight it directed to the wrong gate and only updated to correct one just before departure.
TripIt will often alert you to cancellations or changes even before the airline. If flighty can fix timeliness it will be great.

Best Flight History App

This is by far the best flight history app I have every seen. It’s clean, simple to use and your content can be shared with your friends. The historical features are great for reminiscing on past trips with cools stats to view as well. The only downside is the app is missing a lot of flight data (hundreds of thousands of flights from the second largest Australian airline) and despite paying for the app there’s still no way of manually add this information. Other than this, I love the app and would recommend it to anyone.

Good app, used to be better

Great app with great features, but very annoying that we can't access some features unless paying for a year subscription. Used to be able to do this, would happily pay a couple dollars more on the weeklym/monthly subscription to do so

Invaluable! (But needs a Watch App!)

This is an invaluable app for even a small amount of flights, let alone if you fly often.
The easy navigation and clear information makes the app an indispensable sidekick when you're often tired and stressed travelling through airports. It gives updates of the gates, boarding times, early/late statuses, plane details, flight-plans, and baggage claim carousels, all of which make flying a smoother experience.
If you have a phone with an always-on display, the Live Activity on the lock screen compounds the app's usefulness. Having the flight number, gate, and a countdown to the next boarding, departure, or landing always displayed is a spectacular feature.
A couple of times, last minute gate changes aren't reflected in the app for about twenty minutes, when the the departure boards in the airport and the airlines' owns apps have updated with the new information. The updates eventually came through, but that causes a drops in confidence when it happens. I don't know if that's the fault of Flighty or the public data feeds though.
Astonishingly, there are no watch complications for this app. Every time I fly I have wished I could glance at my wrist to see the gate and departure time. It's a seriously lacking part of the experience, I've had to resort to using Tripsy's complication to at least see the flight number and departure time. Here's hoping that's a feature they add soon.

Good but not great

The best user interface of any flight tracking apps but has quite a few issues and bugs for what is a very premium price.
1. Flight parsing from email did not work for any of my flights.
2. Incorrect data regarding aircraft's incoming route - although this was the fault of their data provider, FlightAware. There's also a UI bug here which causes flights to appear duplicated sometimes.
3. Got spammed with notifications regarding gate changes, 2 days prior to my flight departing. The time window for these notifications should be configurable.
4. Check-in notification was at the wrong time and there's no way to manually correct it or disable it.
5. Airplane WiFi based tracking did not work on VA despite this data being available. While this isn't a prominently advertised feature of this app, it'd be nice if it worked. Happy to send over the API info for the VA WiFi.
6. When on airplane mode, after the app had thought the plane had landed, it bugged out and insisted my plane was taxiing in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. This didn't correct itself until I actually landed and regained internet connectivity.
7. Weather notification on landing was broken and reporting 0 degrees.

Almost Perfect

This app was great for my 1-week trip overseas with multiple layovers/connections. Having which gate I needed to go to sitting in my dynamic island was awesome, and knowing about delays etc. especially with the inbound aircraft was very nice! But I only needed the app for 1 week, so I subscribed for a month and immediately cancelled it. Today, a month later, I get woken up by a “time sensitive” notification telling me my pro subscription has expired. Of course it has, I cancelled it! Why is this time sensitive? When I order food from a delivery app, the delivery alerts are time sensitive but their ads about deals etc. are not, why is Flighty different? Almost 5 stars but sour taste due to this inappropriately-flagged time sensitive notification.

Beautiful App - lacks some features

The Flighty app is beautifully designed and displays data in a clean and modern way. It’s easy to use and has many nice features and functions which take advantage of the iPhone.
Although, the app is lacking the ability to tag/filter flights by Personal or Work/Business. If the team at Flighty has the ability to add a toggle switch for me to toggle on a Work/Business flight, that will help and allow tracking of those types trips.
Otherwise, I highly recommend this app for any travel enthusiasts!

Not working , there’s better and cheaper

The app is not working on my iPhone 14 pro max. Calendars events are not working , I have to add flights manually . Strangely , it worked for my first flights , but then suddenly it stopped working . Now the live activities is no more working too. I have to activate/deactivate/activate the option to see the flight. Today it’s 5.55am , and my flight is in two hours , and I have to fight to find why live activity is not showing . Support is not helpful , and I finally discovered that app in the air , does better , with more options and cheaper … I’m very sad I purchased flight on a yearly subscription, not worth at all.

Extremely expensive for what it provides

UI is nice but it’s way too expensive for the utility that it provides. Instead of paying $80/year for some nice-to-haves I’ll happily go back to googling my flight which has never let me down and costs $0.
The pricing is to take advantage of business travellers who have too much money to spend. The developer will probably reply by saying how much operating costs they have blah blah but this really is irrelevant to the consumer - the consumer should only be concerned with the price versus utility gained from the product.
If it is unsustainable for the developer to charge less than $80/year for what is essentially a souped up google search, then they need to reevaluate their business model.

Great app! But slowly removing features and not the most accurate

I love flighty! They’ve got some great features and I’m loving the native look. *But* they’ve slowly been removing features recently. For instance, you used to be able to view your flight history on the normal map. But now, as soon as you tap the history button, it yeets you into the satellite globe and removes the toggle button. There’s no reason as all for this change, you can still view your current and future flights with the normal map, so why can’t I view my pay flights like that? And they’ve also limited adding historical flights to 365 days unless you pay. And there’s no way to add a flight that isn’t in their database at all. So now if you want to have a complete history, if you haven’t already done it, you can’t without paying. These are both things you could do before that have been removed for no apparent reason. But beyond those two (sorta three things), this app is great! There’s versions for all of my devices and it keep’s everything in sync, the live activities look awesome and it’s great and super helpful to see all your stats for your flight. However, delays aren’t the most accurate. For instance it will still say “on time” sometimes even while your flight is still on the group 30m later than it’s meant to be. I love lots about this app but some of the decisions are annoying and the data isn’t the best until your flight takes off. However being able to see where you plane is before it even lands before your flight is super cool!

Loving It

By far the most detailed and beautifully presented travel app I’ve seen so far. For us regular business fliers Flighty has all you need in terms of detail of your journey and how it’s presented. Offline mode also tracks it when you have no connectivity in the air too. Can’t think of any major product gaps at this point but will post again if I think of one. Likely will upgrade to Pro too! Thanks Flighty team for the thought and care in creating such a cool product!

Taking the p-

There’s a difference between paying developers for the work they do and absolutely taking the p- out of your customers.
EVERYTHING is behind a subscription paywall. Why the heck would notifications, widgets and now Live Activities be behind a paywall? Next, they’ll be charging us to store the app on our device.

I don’t leave reviews, but…

I’m obsessed with this app. The team are constantly on the cutting edge of implementing the latest iOS features, usually the day they become available. Love this app so much I bought the lifetime subscription as I hope to be using it for years to come and have confidence in its development.

This is by far my favourite flight app, the design and utility is absolutely amazing! 😍
Unfortunately it has a habit of consistently crashing a few minutes into each time I use it, even when I'm not interacting with the screen, while also heating my phone up quite a lot.
Once that's been fixed this is hands down the best travel and flight app, amazing job to the developers, I love it so much 👏

Exceptional flight tracker

I was lucky to be part of the beta and am now a paying customer.
This is by far the best flight tracking app for frequent fliers. Except seat selection, I rarely use airline apps or anything else to track my flying anymore.
The data available in Australia is somewhat more limited than in the US, but you’ll still have goodies like gate changes, delays, delay predictions, equipment details and offline tracking etc. everywhere.
I have tracked 40 flights with Flighty and find it irreplaceable by now.
