The 'Flighty' app is getting a machine learning update in the form of Flight 4.0 that aims to elevate the flight tracking app into its next era. The app will now interpret data that relates to what traditionally causes flight delays -- late aircrafts and airspace problems -- and provide users with information about potential delays before airlines. The app will provide a more accurate snapshot of how long a delay might actually be due to things like group stops at airports, weather issues and more.
The latest version of the 'Flighty' app also includes live airport performance trends that can be interpreted to provide additional context behind potential delays that aren't related to individual aircrafts. The latest features are being offers as part of the Flighty Pro subscription priced at $4 for a week or $48 for the year.
