Available for just $0.99 at iPhone’s app store, FlightView’s app delivers features in a highly visual and easy-to-interact-with interface that meet the demands of even the savviest traveler:


  • My Trips: whether taking a trip with connecting flights, traveling to multiple destinations, meeting family members or business colleagues arriving from different locations, or managing hotel and car rental information associated with a trip, FlightView’s My Trips feature enables travelers to group flight legs into trips and incorporate key pieces of travel information – creating easily referenceable trip data for a more productive day of travel experience.

  • The FlightView Map: the industry’s most advanced map where travelers can monitor flights en route and the weather patterns that may be affecting departure and arrival cities and everything in-between.

  • Airport Delays: a comprehensive view of delay status at major North American airports to help travelers better understand the cascading effect of delays on their own flights.


“iPhone users are the vanguard of app buyers and as such, they have very high expectations for value and functionality,” said Michael Benjamin, CEO of FlightView. “With that in mind, we’ve created a travel app that optimizes usability and is packed with features that help road warriors and vacation travelers alike make better day-of-travel decisions about when to the leave for the airport, what alternative flights exist when things go wrong and how to manage key ground transportation, hotel, and restaurant reservations.”

Setting the Pace for the Flight Tracking Mobile App Market

From flight delays and gate changes to inclement weather and even disruptions caused by volcanic ash, travelers need better and more actionable information to reduce the stress of traveling by air.

Delivering this information tailored for the unique environment of the smart phone since 2008, FlightView has continuously led the market for flight tracking apps with constant innovation and consistently high ratings from users.
