FAQ

Questions FlightStats owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I check the live status of a specific flight?

    You can use the get_flight_status capability by providing the carrier code, flight number, and departure date. The agent will return real-time gate, delay, and timing information.

  • 02

    Can I see which flights are currently departing from a specific airport?

    Yes, use the get_airport_status capability. Specify the airport code (e.g., 'LAX'), set the direction to 'dep' (departures), and provide the date and hour to get a complete list of scheduled and active departures.

  • 03

    Is it possible to track flights flying over my current location?

    Absolutely. By using the get_flights_near capability with your latitude, longitude, and a search radius in miles, your agent will list all active flights currently in that airspace.
