FlightByte Watches Flights So Your Software Doesn’t Have To
A flight-status API that sends signed webhooks for gate changes, delays, departures, arrivals, and baggage updates.
Field notes
The documented workflow separates a one-time flight lookup from an ongoing subscription, with updates delivered to a receiver chosen by the developer. An example for Turkish Airlines TK1848 shows both a full status snapshot and a structured gate-change diff from A11 to A22. The page also specifies operational constraints rather than only feature slogans: polling tightens to three minutes near departure, signatures tolerate five minutes of clock drift, and failed deliveries receive backoff retries.
