Flight Delays with Percentiles

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.

August ’23 Updates

We followed up on requests that we got from our customers and happy to announce a new batch of updates. New: Airline Fleet Endpoint It is now possible to get a list of aircraft per airline. No need for extra words, just check out our documentation :) This endpoint is paged and belongs to Tier

April ’23 Updates: New Endpoints and Performance and Usability Improvements

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 and ultimately answers

Geolocating Nearby Airports by IP

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

Introducing Historical Airport and Global Delays

We have significantly expanded the capabilities of our airport delays endpoint. This endpoint is designed to get a statistical insight of the "smoothness" of flight operations in this or that airport. Until recently, it only allowed you to trace this information in real-time only. We have now changed several things: [UPDATED] Airport delays endpoint now

Flight take-off and landing time & Runway detection based on ADS-B data, More flights, and status updates

We are continuing to expand capabilities related to analyzing actual flight tracks with reliance on community-maintained ADS-B data provided by third-party. Attentive users could have already noticed that for some airports AeroDataBox API has started providing: Flight runway data, which we introduced as a response to requests of a few users to have some capabilities

Searching for Flight Status by ATC Call-sign, Aircraft Registration or Aircraft 24-bit ICAO Mode-S transponder address

We are introducing more capabilities to search for flight status. From now on, you can look for individual flight information not only by flight number but also by ATC call-sign, registration or 24-bit ICAO Mode-S hexadecimal transponder address of the aircraft operating the flight. New search capabilities are delivered by introducing new endpoints: Flight by

Adding USA Live Flights Coverage, Adding Mode-S Transponder Code, COVID-19 Changes, Airport Daily Statistic Routes Update

Here are some updates regarding the API made in recent weeks: USA LIVE FLIGHTS COVERAGE We have integrated live flight updates for the airports in the USA, which is a huge live flight data coverage expansion (almost 400%). Updates are based on flight plan data and include aircraft registration and model, flight status, scheduled, estimated

FIDS with Extended Information, Flight Time and Distance

There is some new stuff in the API that was implemented recently: FIDS endpoint now has additional query string boolean parameter "withLeg". When set to true, the response will contain times of arrival at destination for departing flights, and times of departure from the origin for arriving flights, if available. Please note, that the response

New Year Updates
