Favorite App

One of my absolute favorite apps on my phone, and I’m an app developer. Really excellent work from the Flighty team

Pure Genius!

I absolutely adore this app!

Need pro

Pretty good app but would need pro so it’s good

Flighty is great

Love it , it’s really good , seeing it going alone and landing …. Great see how fast it’s going 👌

Amazing!

This app is amazing. if you’re a frequent flier you would be crazy not to have it!

Amazing

The greatest travel app of all time.

Worth every penny of Pro

I fly a lot (100K+ EQM/Year), and Flighty has become the app I check before I check the airline's own app. The notifications land first. Not by a few seconds either. Aircraft swaps, delays, gate changes, all of it shows up while the official app is still thinking about it.

The best example: I got an aircraft change and delay alert mid-flight. I rebooked from my seat and landed with a new plan already confirmed. Everybody else on that plane walked straight into a rebooking line 200 deep, waiting on gate agents who had already been chewed out by a dozen frustrated passengers. I walked past that line to my next gate.

Then there's the part I did not expect, which is that Flighty is fun. Seeing the tail number, the age of the airframe, the history of that specific plane, and finding out I've flown that same bird before scratches an itch I didn't know I had. It turns a travel day into something I actually look forward to instead of something I endure.

If you fly more than a few times a year, get it, and get Pro. Highly recommended.

Both iOS and macOS Apps are incredible.

Flighty if you read this please add MCP support soon.

It’s horrible on the Mac

1. It’s using 2GB of RAM for a map - why?
2. It doesn’t seem to cache map tiles so switching zoom levels causes black tiles to appear while it downloads them again. Either that or it’s very slow to reload them from disk.
3. Scroll to zoom is bizarre, it always zooms towards the Arctic Circle, not the location where my cursor is pointing.

How is this useful?

Flighty says my flight leaving in 30 minutes, airport boards saying flight delayed for 90 minutes. In the updates only available for pro it shows they knew flight was delayed 2 hours ago, every time I click they asking me to pay for pro. They state you can use pro features on your first flight but is not allowing me to see updates. So I don’t understand what this app is for!!!

4 stars

Amazing app is so useful! Only 4-star because I wish there was support for android so even my 2nd tier friends and family could enjoy it. :)

Frustration Saver

I seldom write app reviews but this is a real world example of how a good app can save time and frustration.

Delta put out an announcement yesterday afternoon waiving flight change fees due to anticipated bad weather, with my flight location being one of those affected.

A quick scan of Flighty gave me the confidence that my aircraft would be in place with clear weather for takeoff.

Love the app

Excelent

Pesters

How many times do I have to decline your purchase offer? Every single time I open the app? Seems excessive.

Must have for frequent travelers

Amazing. Great for yourself. Great for tracking friends family or associates flights in real time. Perfect app

An addicting app

For anyone who flights, or must fly, or will fly, or likes flights: this is the app for them. Features you didn’t know you wanted. Design you didn’t know was possible.

Awesome travel tool!

Flighty is a great way to keep track of all your flights! It also usually tells you the delay before the airline does.

great quality of life improvements

love how easy it is to use and navigate flighty, and also the amount of information it gives is insane. i’ve had notifications for gates, landing, departure, and delays, sent to me before the airport even updates it itself. also amazing to track everywhere i’ve been in the world, and is a great place to go back and see fun statistics about all the flights you’ve ever taken across giur life.

Wish I had this years ago.

Love this app. Entertaining at the very least, but informative for the most part. Hopefully there’s more development to come like, seat maps (selection guides).

Very useful

I love this app! As a frequent flyer it is a perfect way for me to track my flights !

Fast updates

Flightly has been a great addition to my travel tools. It consistently updates faster than the airline app with gate changes, delays, and baggage claim number notifications. The two thinks I wish I could do is sync my flight app so I don’t have to manually add flights. I also would like for the ability to share my flight information with someone that has an android device.
