Under: How To Know What To Use
Found via The Consumerist
Flying has never been more annoying. I spend a little more time in the air than I would probably like to and have suffered my share of delays. More importantly, I am often charged with collecting friends and family from airports.
That is why I am glad that someone decided it would be a good idea to aggregate all the information that you might need to make informed travel decisions.
Flight Aware offers a database of all U.S. flights including information about
- Take Off Time
- Landing Time
- A Map of the Route
- Wheel Up / Wheel Down Times
Not to mention, a lot of other data-points for the closet travel geek. Next time you need to pick up Aunt May from the Atlanta Airport or just feel like obsessively tracking the skies overhead, give FlightAware a look — it’s kind of fun.
