Flighty
Reviews and Complaints

Absolutely love this app. Decided to buy an annual pass after seeing multiple positive reviews and advertisements and boy am I glad I did. Worth every penny.

One critique, however, is the lack of effective identifcation of baggage claim carousels. The baggage claim category/title is there but does not update for me. Not sure if this is a bug or an impending feature, but it's something I'm looking forward to being rectified/implemented.

Every few years there is an app that comes around and establishes itself as a "personal stock app". This is one of them. I hope it is available for as long as we are carrying around little pocket computers. Even if it doesn't last forever, I will look back on this gerneation of software and think nostolgically about how *perfectthis app is. It is a need and not a want and I would cancel a dozen subscriptions before cancalling this one.

Update:
The app has been updated and fixed. This was apparently a global issue that was fixed within 24 hours

*** Old post:
I have been using the app for quite sometimes now. It was working well until a few weeks until all my flights were showing planes still at the gate even though they left or still flying even though my flights were completed. Not sure how I would continue to use the app when it doesn’t seem to be syncing much.

This is so good that you’re going to tell everyone how good it is and then they are going to be so annoyed with you telling them how good it is that they will vow never to download it purely out of spite - until they end up downloading it and then *theywill start annoying their friends by constantly telling them how good it is.

Anyway, it’s that good. My only ONLY nit is that I wish it included gate info. Other than that, it’s a marvel.

Hello flighty Team ,

First of all nice and great work. However I have two suggestions for you.

1- may be to reduce the price for monthly subscription with a promo code or a special deal for Black Friday. I’m in Morocco and really interested for your app.

2- second point if you could add a wallet in order to register our boarding passes, hotel confirmation, pre-reserved Uber , and more and to have then all in wallet of iPhone.

Thank you

The design and features set it apart from other apps but it keeps insisting my flight is on time when other apps already show it is late. Shows gate information later than other apps as well and the calendar integration is so finicky to a point where I just add my flights manually as it just stops working whenever it wants without any way to refresh or make it scan again. Cannot live on design alone. Like this I’ll be moving on. Really a shame.

You might think of those two things in the title as the same but let me explain.

The app has been carefully crafted to be gorgeous. It’s beautiful.

As a frequent traveler and million miler, it’s delightful in the functionality it provides. Clearly understood notifications, detailed terminal information, advanced flight route information. These capabilities delight me as I’m traveling, while the app is beautifully designed so it’s easy on my eyes.

First off the new version 2.0 is gorgeous! Second, love how amazing this app is. Bought the lifetime subscription. On one of my last flights I got notified as soon as the pilot released the parking break for pushback that my flight had left the gate.

Seriously amazing fast servers! The delay prediction is also great. I knew about delays before the airline posted!

As a frequent flyer, I absolutely love this app! Well worth the subscription!

This app is incredible! The amount of relevant flight status detail from before to during the flight is second to none. I am a very frequent traveler and have used many travel apps so can offer a couple of improvement ideas - 1) add transit instructions between gates for connecting flights and 2) offer checkin reminders for upcoming flights. Other than that - really well done to the developers! This is my new travel app favorite. Highly recommended.

This is an incredible app that synchs also with TripIt. However, it provides minute to minute detail on your flight, upcoming flights, etc. The speed and detail with which you receive updated info is mystifying right on down to “the door closed and pulling away from the gate,” “time to taxi to the gate,” “history of the aircraft and past behavior of late vs early.” Every family that travels shouldn’t have this…can share info with live link to others. Crazy good!

If you value thoughtful design and engineering, this is the flight tracking app for you. I’ve tried 8 other top flight tracker recommendations and Flighty is clearly the best by far. The level of thought the Flighty team has put into even the smallest details is impressive. The result is that I get exactly the information I need at exactly the right time when traveling. This app also does the best job of organizing and displaying large amounts of flight information.

I LOVE Flighty. It is my daily go to app on my iPhone and my Mac to plan, track, monitor all my flights. I fly 2-3 times a week, I need options, I need calendar sync'ing, I need flight tracking, departure and arrival gates, delays... adn Flighty does it ALL. Flawlessly. Please add weather (radar) overlay and real time aircraft metrics (speed, altitude...) ! The annual subscription is TOTALLY worth it. No better app for people who fly a ton. Nicely done Flighty Crew !

This is a great app but PLEASE make the "my flights" window scalable or closeable or a tab/drawer. I have one flight yet the window obscures a huge portion of the map unless I have the window scaled way up or zoomed out. If you want to keep this app open in a small window on your screen the "my flights" portion will cover more than half of the map making it pretty much useless. Also there is only one zoom level. A regular fractional zoom would be much more useful.

I am a professional airline pilot and I use this app when flying as a passenger both on company business and as a non revenue standby customer. Most importatnly, the data is accurate. Secondly, its timely, and last but not least it syncs across all devices effortlessly.

While this app and its paid service isnt the cheapest, it rivals the proprietary programs and apps that the airlines use. I can't say enough good things about it. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed!

With Flighty's schedule syncing capabilities I can sync my work schedule with my calendar and Flighty pulls all of my upcoming trips in. Before I even leave the hotel I know if the incoming aircraft is delayed, what gate I'm headed to, and what tail number I'm looking for. Curious if we're keeping the same plane all day? It's all there. Flighty makes airline pilots and FAs jobs easier with a level of automation that just gives you the pertinent information when you need it.

App is pretty. It’s updates are quite good. It needs to do way more on importing data and accuracy of data. For example it failed to see my flight in outlook. I forwarded mail and that worked. While monitoring flight information was incomplete and some times wrong. Display on where the inbound plane was is confusing as it shows it as 48m late but no longer says when did it get here but rather my outbound time. Once they fix these things it will be excellent as well s pretty.

I fly often enough to know the more information a passenger can have about their flight, the better. The Flighty app has been such a great “friend” to have alongside of me on my flights (both domestic and international). Often times I get notifications about delays or gate changes related to my flights LONG BEFORE the airline app tells me! Whether an occasional / avid flyer, you’re sure to find something on Flighty that’ll supersede anything a native airline apps can provide!

I travel a lot and have used FlightAware, FlightBoard etc This app combines a lot do that I do which is good. The only thing that doesn’t seem so good is the Where’s My Plane function. It is clogged up with flights from prior days mixed in with todays flight. It is also inconsistent. It currently says my flight is in air to Syracuse when it is sitting on the tarmac here at LGA and further down kn that part of the app it says the plane arrived in NY early. Weird and confusing.

I have never been a routine air traveler, so each flight is a pretty high-stakes, stressful situation for me.

Using Flighty has brought that stress down to pretty insignificant levels. The notifications, data, and presentation all come together to make the flying process simple and fun.

For less than the price of an airport water bottle, you can subscribe to flighty pro for the month of your flight and get phenomenal relief and ease about air travel. At least, that's what I do.

The app is well designed and simply to use. Some integrations like trip it somehow improve it too. But manually creating all the flight is annoying. Would be better to have them extracted automatically from the mail. But, I tried to add some old flight from Asia and Europe, and it’s just cannot find them. I have a list of 9 of them. But decided to cancel the subscription and not worry about. Overall it ok, but make sense only if you travel a lot, or at least a couple times a month.
