Flight Status and Track

Cirium’ Flex APIs provide access to the most complete global flight data available. These APIs answer questions most important to air travelers and industry professionals. The Flight Status and Track API allows queries of status and position by airport, flight, route, and area.

Flight Status

Flight Status deals with questions such as:

  • Is my flight on time?
  • How long is the delay?
  • Is it cancelled?
  • What is my departure or arrival gate and terminal?

This is a very flexible API that allows you to retrieve detailed information about a flight’s schedule, departure and arrival airports, delays, cancellations, diversions, gates and terminals.

  • What is the planned flight path for this flight?
