Flight Delay Notifications
All customers who file US flight plans with ForeFlight will benefit by receiving Expect Departure Clearance Time (EDCT) notifications via email and push when any Traffic Management Initiatives are in effect. In addition, tap on expected route messages to load the modified route into Flights and automatically refresh the Navlog and Briefing.
Customers who file Europe flight plans will similarly receive Calculated Take Off Time (CTOT) notifications. Traffic flow programs help to balance the airspace system capacity, and these notifications via ForeFlight provide the pilot or flight planner with critical real-time flight information.
Aeronautical Map Feature Toggles & Improved Airspace Labels
Instantly declutter the map by filtering airports, airspace, airways, ARTCC boundaries, terrain, and roads directly on the Aeronautical Map layer. In addition, dynamic airspace altitude labels are now always visible along airspace boundaries.
Fast, Easy Door-to-Door Planning with Trip Assistant
Trip Assistant helps any scheduler, executive assistant, or pilot more easily plan and prepare for upcoming flights. This simple-to-use tool factors in traffic during drive times, as well as flight times and time spent at each airport, to create a detailed itinerary so you know exactly when to leave or when you will arrive. Available on the web for Performance subscribers.
