Missing a flight because of traffic is the worst. MakeMyFlight works out exactly when you need to walk out the door, so you can stop doing airport math in your head. Add your flight, set your home address and how early you like to arrive, and MakeMyFlight does the rest. It checks live and predicted traffic to your departure airport and tells you when to leave. WHEN TO LEAVE, WORKED OUT FOR YOU - Leave-by time based on real, traffic-aware drive times - Your own arrival buffer (2 hours by default, and you can change it) - Times are always shown in the airport's local time zone, wherever you're flying from ALERTS THAT ONLY MATTER WHEN THEY MATTER - Get your leave time ahead of your flight, then updates as departure nears - A follow-up goes out only when something meaningful changes: a drive that gets much longer or shorter, or a flight time that moves - Push notifications, plus optional text and email, and you choose which ones you get ALWAYS IN SIGHT - Live Activity and Dynamic Island countdown to your leave time - Home Screen widget and Apple Watch app - Ask Siri when to leave FLIGHT UPDATES - Delays, takeoff, and arrival, including baggage belt when the airport reports one DRIVE OR TRANSIT - Compare driving with public transit, with live service alerts, in Chicago, New York, Boston, San Francisco, Washington D.C., and London - Interactive map preview of your route to the airport ADD FLIGHTS YOUR WAY - Search by flight number or route - Scan your calendar (Apple, Google, or Outlook) for flights. It happens on your device, and nothing is sent anywhere to find them. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - Sign in with Apple or Google - Your home address is used only to calculate your drive to the airport Whether it's a 6 a.m. red-eye run or a midday hop, MakeMyFlight gets you there with time to spare.
