About the Flight Tracker
In this day and age when the global community is so directly interconnected, it only makes sense to use the best technology available to keep travelers informed with everything they need to know about their flights. To ensure this, we provide a live flight tracking system that gives you real-time updates on where the flight is at any moment. The flight tracker gives you the power to track a flights' status, see their arrival and departure times, check the gates associated with the flights, and get the live position of your tracked flight on our interactive map.
You won't need to be rushing to the airport prematurely, or worse yet, be late after making your friends wait in the lounge. You'll also avoid the hassle of locating your flight at the airport and looking at different gate monitors to find where you're supposed to go. Additionally, you'll save yourself from the frustration of unnecessary waiting at the airport in case your flight is canceled.
How it works
The flight tracker uses advanced GPS technology and ADS-B receivers and satellites stationed worldwide, making it possible to track flights and their arrival or departure times in real-time. This easy-to-use feature only requires you to provide your flight number, date of departure, or the route to track the location, status, and timing of every flight.
But the ADS-B receivers aren't the only thing that iFly depends on. There are certain areas around the globe, such as the airspace above the ocean, where it is impossible to add physical ADS-B receivers for tracking purposes. So, to overcome those blind spots, a satellite acts as the ADS-B receiver and helps pinpoint the locality of the airplanes.
The GPS data is recorded by different receivers and satellites set in place all across the country and the global destinations. This data is transmitted to the relevant airline's headquarters, as well as aviation authorities, where it is sorted and updated to the flight tracking system on the web. This allows you to get accurate, up-to-date, and reliable information directly from the source.
Most airlines (like Delta, United, Southwest, British Airways, etc), use slightly different criteria for "arrival" vs "departure", vs what the airport might report, or the civil aviation authority (i.e. the FAA). Is the aircraft at the gate, or is it actually taxiing? This is why the live flight tracker aggregates the flight status information from multiple sources, helping to ensure the accuracy of a flight tracked in real-time.
