About

Flight Board

Features
Read full description

Flight Board is a departure board for the flights you are actually taking. Add a flight and it starts watching. When the gate is called, when the time moves, when boarding starts, you are told, with the airline, the flight number and the number that has just changed. THE BOARD Your flights, drawn the way the departures hall draws them: flight, destination, check-in, gate, time. When a gate is called or a time moves, the board changes, and Flight Board tells you which flight moved and where. CHECK-IN AND GATE The check-in desk sits before the gate, because when you have just arrived the gate is usually not assigned yet and the desk is where you are actually going. Every time on the screen is the airport's own clock, not your phone's, so a flight from Tokyo reads in Tokyo time wherever you are standing. WHAT YOU GET TOLD Gate assigned. Gate changed. Check-in open. Boarding. Final call. Delayed, with the new time shown beside the old one. Cancelled, with the alternatives we can find on the same route. Diverted. Landed, with the belt. WHERE IS MY PLANE The aircraft that will fly you is usually somewhere else right now. Flight Board follows its inbound leg. See our estimate of a delay in Flight Intelligence, often before the airline announces it. CONNECTIONS When two of your flights connect, Flight Board shows how tight your connection is and what to do next: the walk, security, passport control, and what is left over. It shows the arithmetic, not only the verdict. YOUR FLIGHT, EXPLAINED With a subscription, Flight Board helps you understand flight changes, ask questions about your flight, see what may affect your departure, get guidance for your connection, receive clearer flight updates and understand your flying history. The airline's own times stay apart from estimates, and anything not known is said rather than guessed. PASSPORT Every country, airline and airport you have flown, built from your own flights, with the marks you earn along the way and a record of the longest, the highest and the earliest. LIVE ACTIVITIES AND WIDGETS The Live Activity on your lock screen reads the same source as the board and the tracking, so the three cannot disagree. Widgets put your gate on the home screen. ADDING A FLIGHT Type a flight number or a route. Scan a boarding pass and it fills in everything, including your seat. Import from an email, a calendar or a file. Or enter it yourself when nothing else has it. ONE CARREH ACCOUNT Flight Board runs on your Carreh account. If you already use Carreh, the flights in your account are offered to you on the first open. You do not need Carreh Premium, and Flight Board does not include it. TWENTY-FOUR LANGUAGES Flight Board is fully translated, and the language can be changed on the first screen, before you sign in. SUBSCRIPTION Your first flight is free, with every live feature. After that, choose a yearly or a monthly subscription, or a trip pass that opens every flight for 7 days. Each price is shown in the app before you pay. The subscriptions have no free trial, renew until cancelled and can be cancelled at any time in your Apple account settings. The trip pass is a single payment and does not renew. Flight Board is separate from Carreh Premium and from every other Carreh product. Terms of Use: https://flightboard.carreh.com/legal/terms Privacy Policy: https://carreh.com/privacy-policy
