What it does
Track flights and look up status and schedules. Use when: flight status, track a flight, flightaware, arrivals, departures, delays, or a flight number.
Flights
When to use
Live status, schedules, gates, and delays for a flight the user names.
Setup
Two paths:
- Web (no setup). Flight number + date via web search; good enough for status, terminals, and delays.
- FlightAware AeroAPI (structured data). Needs the user's API key, or
fail loud:
curl -H "x-apikey: $FLIGHTAWARE_API_KEY" https://aeroapi.flightaware.com/aeroapi/flights/{ident}
Workflow
- Confirm the flight identifier and date, never guess between same-number daily flights.
- Report status, scheduled vs actual times, origin/destination, and terminal/gate.
- State the timezone of every time quoted.
Non-goals
- Do not book, change, or cancel travel.
- Do not look up other people's itineraries from a name alone.
- Do not quote times without their timezone.
