Free users can check flight status and history. Business products include APIs for flight data and tools that help operators with planning and alerts. Its data combines radar feeds, satellite data, and ground receivers.

Operations staff use it to monitor delays and trace aircraft. Like other public trackers, it is informational and not a substitute for official air traffic systems.

Flightradar24 is the main alternative. FlightAware suits dispatchers, operators, and developers who need flight data.
