Flighty is built by serious travelers for serious travelers. We are aviation nerds that were frustrated by the lack of information and transparency when flying — especially from airlines and their apps. So, Flighty was built to give travelers the fastest flight alerts, like delays, cancelations, and connections, all with unmatched accuracy and speed (often hours before your airline tells you).

Airlines aren’t in a rush to tell you what’s wrong. If a flight is delayed or canceled, they have to manage crew logistics, reroute aircraft, rebook travelers — and most importantly, keep things calm at the gate. That’s why delays often go unannounced until the last minute. Even if they wanted to move faster, most airline apps simply aren’t built for it. Their tech is designed around ticket sales, upgrades, and loyalty — not real-time alerts.

In short:

• Flighty is the all-in-one flight tracker that gives you flight alerts in real-time.

• Airline apps are mostly for ticket sales, upgrades, and boarding passes.
