On July 19, 2024, a software update from CrowdStrike caused a major disruption by triggering blue screens of death on Windows machines globally. This incident led to a widespread IT outage that impacted various sectors, including grounding commercial airline flights worldwide, taking Sky News offline, and disrupting 911 emergency call centers.
We decided to take a look at statistics accumulated by AeroDataBox API during the day to see how much was the impact on the worldwide air traffic.

Flight Time Calculation API has been enhanced with machine learning to offer more accurate flight time estimates by considering specific routes and aircraft types. This update allows more realistic estimate of flight time on certain routes, especially routes affected by major detours due to long-lasting airspace closures in war conflict zones or due to other regulatory restrictions.

Our Flight Delays API endpoint now offering delay statistics across multiple percentiles, not just median. This update introduces insights into delay distributions at various levels, from the 5th to the 95th percentile. This way, you will be able to determine by how much the vast majority or minority of flights under a requested number were delayed/early, while “vast majority” and “vast minority” being the terms defined by you.

You can now request flights from FIDS in easy relative fashion. For example: “give me all arrivals/departures starting from 2 hours ago for the next 12 hours”. No more need to calculate the local time of the airport!

Search airports by IP geolocation and Search airports by location endpoints now have query-string style counter-parts. If you’re on the most recent pricing plans, we recommend: using /airports/search/location?lat={lat}&lon={lon}&radiusKm={radiusKm}&limit={limit} instead of /airports/search/location/{lat}/{lon}/km/{radiusKm}/{limit} (documentation) using /airports/search/ip?q={ip}&radiusKm={radiusKm}&limit={limit} instead of /airports/search/ip/{ip}/km/{radiusKm}/{limit} (documentation) New endpoint added: Solar and day time at the airportGET /airports/{codeType}/{code}/time/solar/*It produces certain solar and daytime calculations

Our new endpoint allows geolocating nearby airports by IP address. We already have an endpoint returning nearest airports by making use of the coordinates (latitude and longitude) as an input. The new endpoint complements this set. It geolocates the coordinates internally by using the IP address as an input, and returns airports, closest to that

We now return ICAO and IATA airline codes as part of API responses from any flight endpoints, whether it is FIDS or flight status. Earlier, we only returned the name of the airline. The change will only apply to the flights, where the airline / operator could be correctly mapped. This is valid for the
