The Inflighto app is designed for use on aircraft with high-speed, internet-connected, inflight WiFi systems.

​

Flight-tracking begins after take-off.

 

Inflighto must have a connection to the internet at all times to function correctly.

​

THE BASIC VERSION OF INFLIGHTO HAS LIMITED TRACKING. UPGRADE FOR MORE!

​

​Important:

• Download the Inflighto app to your mobile device before boarding to ensure it's installed correctly. Some airlines do not allow app store access on their inflight Wi-Fi systems. 

• Make sure you always download the latest version of Inflighto. Inflighto regularly releases updated versions to the App Store and Google Play.

• Not all inflight Wi-Fi systems are created equal! Some older systems are slow and often unreliable. This will affect the performance of all apps - not just Inflighto.

• Systems with less than 1MB connection speed, may cause problems.

​

Flight Mode/Aeroplane Mode:

Ensure you have 'Wi-Fi' enabled on your mobile device after switching to 'Flight Mode'. You may have to manually re-activate 'Wi-Fi' on some mobile devices to ensure you have an active internet connection. Ask your flight attendant for assistance if required.

​

Flight Number Search:

There are three ways to search for your flight:

1. Enter your FLIGHT NUMBER using the full alpha-numeric code (eg QF1 or AA123)

2. Search by ROUTE point of departure and destination (SYDNEY - LONDON)

3. BROWSE all airline flights that are currently airborne.

​

NOTE: Flight tracking will begin after take-off when your flight is airborne.

 

Search by Flight Number:

You can enter the flight number found on your boarding pass or e-ticket. For example: QF1 or UA123. Ask your flight attendant for help if you have forgotten your flight number.

​

You can enter IATA or ICAO flight number codes. Inflighto recognises both codes (eg QF123 or QFA123). Inflighto also recognises code-share fights and multi-leg services.

​

Search by Aircraft Registration Number (Tail Number).

You can search for your aircraft's registration number instead of a flight number. For example: VH-VDR or N661EA. You can track General Aviation flights this way. Ask your pilot for assistance.

​

Search by Airline, Departure and Destination:

Enter the name of the airport you're departing from and the airport you're arriving at (eg. Sydney Kingsford Smith INT and London Heathrow INT).

​

Select your flight number from the search results by tapping the 'CONFIRM' button.

 

NOTE: Inflighto tracks all global commercial airline flights. If your flight isn't listed in the search results, wait until your flight is airborne and search again.

​

Flight tracking begins just after take-off. The 'moving-map' is not available until the aircraft is airborne. If your map screen doesn't appear automatically after take-off, try 'RESETTING' your flight by 'CANCELLING' and re-entering your flight number.

​

Reset:

You can reset your flight at any time by accessing the 'Settings' menu at the top left hand side of the Inflighto app screen. Simply select 'Reset' to re-enter your flight details, flight number or aircraft registration.

​

Share Your Flight:

You can easily share your flight's status, position and location with family and friends so they can track your flight.
