Flighty Update Adds Step-by-Step Guide for Connecting Flights
Flighty, a popular flight tracking app, has introduced a new feature called Connection Assistant. This tool aims to simplify the process of making connecting flights at airports globally. The assistant provides users with a detailed, step-by-step guide for all their connections. It clearly indicates whether passport control, bag rechecking, security screening, or terminal changes are necessary. Additionally, it offers an estimated time for completing each of these steps. By adding passport information, users can discover if they are eligible for e-gates or can bypass passport control entirely. Connection Assistant also flags tight connections based on recommended minimums and typical transit times. The feature leverages flight tracking data, airport-specific procedures, and statistical modeling from millions of flights. Furthermore, Flighty can now predict arrival and departure gates, gate ranges, or concourses upon initial flight addition. These predictions become more precise, narrowing down to the exact gate on the day of travel.
