CORK Airport has launched an exciting new flight-tracking feature on its app.

The airport is the first one in the world to offer this feature, which will allow passengers to click on a flight number and track live updates of exactly where the plane is at that moment in time. The flight-tracking feature will show the aircraft’s route, speed, type of aircraft, altitude, distance travelled and total distance to destination.

Additional features include a live map of flights in and out of Cork Airport in real time, which can be filtered by arrivals and departures. App users will be able to see how far a departed flight has travelled to Malaga for example. The user will also see where the plane from Malaga is, once it has departed the Spanish airport.

This updated flight-tracking feature now makes it even easier for passengers to plan their journey to and from the airport.

The updated Cork Airport App is available to download free in the iTunes and Google Play stores.
