FAQ

Questions FlightAware owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I get the exact position history of a flight?

    Yes. Use the get_flight_track capability with the flight identifier to retrieve a detailed list of coordinates and altitudes recorded during the flight.

  • 02

    How do I check the current weather at a specific airport?

    You can use the get_airport_weather capability by providing the ICAO or IATA code (e.g., 'KJFK' or 'LHR'). It returns current METAR data and TAF forecasts.

  • 03

    Is it possible to see all flights currently arriving at an airport?

    Absolutely. Use the get_airport_flights capability with the airport code and set the type to 'arrivals' to see all aircraft currently en route or recently landed.
