I’m working the midnight shift now, so when I’m off I stay up late at night and do meaningless things. I have found an interesting website where you can track your airline flights for free. It’s pretty interesting. I don’t know how accurate it is yet because I haven’t tracked a known flight to me. Someone needs to fly up and see me so I can see if this thing works.
You can track several different ways: by flight number, by airline, by tail number, by airport, or you can just choose random flights to track. It’s kind of fun. It’s got weather delays and airport delays. It’s also got a mobile website that you can use on your phone. You can also set it up to where it notifies you via a phone or e-mail message when the flight plan is filed, the flight departs, lands, or is cancelled or diverted.
The website is Flight Aware.
