What This Skill Does
Tracks any flight worldwide by IATA flight number using the AviationStack API. Returns real-time status, terminal and gate info, delay calculations, and live position when the flight is airborne. Output mirrors the layout of the Flighty app.
Returns gate, delay, and live position data in a single command instead of navigating multiple airline websites.
When to use it
- Checking if an incoming flight is delayed before driving to the airport
- Looking up gate info for a pickup at arrivals
- Monitoring a family member's flight in real time
- Verifying departure terminal and scheduled times before heading out
- Getting live altitude and speed for an in-progress flight
