About FlightMap.live

FlightMap.live shows commercial and private air traffic in real time, worldwide — every aircraft currently broadcasting its position, updated continuously on an interactive map. Click any plane for its route, aircraft type, and registration; search a flight number or airport board directly; bookmark the ones you care about.

It's built and run independently, not by a large aviation-data company — the free tier is meant to genuinely stay useful on its own, and Pro exists to fund the real, ongoing cost of keeping live data flowing (not to withhold anything essential).

The map, live positions, and airport boards run on public flight-tracking data (OpenSky Network and AeroDataBox), refreshed continuously as aircraft move.
