FAQ
Is this live flight tracking?
Live tracking is available 60 minutes before scheduled departure, while airborne, and for about 30 minutes after touchdown. This page also shows schedule and historical performance.
What does "typical delay" mean?
It's the median delay from the last 3 flights on this route in the past 3650 days (2026-01-17–2026-01-19). It's a useful estimate, but any single flight can differ.
Why can gates or terminals change?
Gates are assigned by the airport and can change on short notice. We show the most common gates from the last 3 flights in the past 3650 days. When patterns are consistent, our algorithm estimates the most likely gate and provides a probability — but it is not a guarantee.
