Flightradar24 Flight Tracker

The world's most popular flight tracker - #1 Travel app in over 150 countries. Flightradar24 is a free flight tracker app that allows users to turn their phone or tablet into a live plane tracker. With this app, users can watch aircraft move around the world in real-time, identify flights overhead, and see flight information such as route, estimated time of arrival, actual time of departure, aircraft type, speed, altitude, and more. Users can also view a flight in 3D and see hundreds of airline liveries, as well as search for individual flights using flight number, airport, or airline.

Flightradar24 also offers two upgrade options—Silver and Gold—each with a free trial. Silver includes 90 days of flight tracking history, more aircraft details, more flight details, filters and alerts, and current weather at 3,000+ airports overlaid on the map. Gold includes all the features included in Silver, plus 365 days of flight history, detailed live map weather layers for clouds and precipitation, aeronautical charts and oceanic tracks, air traffic control boundaries, and extended Mode S data.

Flightradar24 works by using ADS-B transponders that transmit positional data. Flightradar24 has a rapidly growing network of over 30,000 ground stations around the world to receive this data that then shows up as aircraft moving on a map in the app. In an expanding number of regions, with the help of multilateration, Flightradar24 is able to calculate the positions of aircraft that don’t have ADS-B transponders. Coverage in North America is also supplemented by real-time radar data.

Finally, Flightradar24 includes a disclaimer that the use of this app is strictly limited to entertainment purposes and that the developer of this app will not be held responsible for incidents resulting from the use of the data or its interpretation or its use contrary to this agreement.
