Being equipped with the right apps for traveling is a necessity, and the renowned platform, Flighty, has released its updated version 4.0 which introduces new capabilities for the app. This is because the app has now introduced machine learning capabilities, a.k.a. AI, which would help in predicting if one's flight will face a delay, centering on aircraft arriving late at the terminal.
Moreover, Flighty's advanced capabilities will also gather reasons as to why one's flight would be delayed, and will no longer keep users in the dark.

The latest update from Flighty is version 4.0, and 9to5Mac revealed what this update has to offer users, centering on its employment of the most advanced tech of today, artificial intelligence. With version 4.0, Flighty now can tell users if their flight is delayed, centering on airplanes or aviation companies running late in providing the vessel travelers would ride on.
However, it is not an exact science, as Flighty can only predict if its flight will get delayed based on the data that it gathers from its flight tracking capabilities.
According to Flighty, it uses machine learning that is capable of predicting with 95 percent accuracy, and it could also tell users if this was caused by the Air Space or airports' Air Traffic Control as it could tap into FAA and Eurocontrol data.
Apart from telling users about their delayed flight before ground crew employees can, it could also use the data it gathered to find out the reason behind the said delays. There are various reasons as to why a flight would be delayed, as it could be for inclement weather, taxi congestion, ground control issues, late aircraft, and more which it would provide to users.
Helpful Air Travel Apps For You
For the not-so-keen travelers who are always going with the flow whenever arriving at airports and relying on what the crew will tell users about different information of their journey. Among the top apps for traveling is Flighty, and it has helped in giving accurate and reliable information to flyers with ease, with a previous feature allowing users to get updated data despite being on Airplane Mode or offline.
Another one that will help users in their flight is helping offer them peace of mind about what type, brand, or make of their aircraft, especially with the recent issues on Boeing aircraft. 'Am I Flying with Boeing' is a website that offers user insights if their nearing or upcoming flight would be using a plane made by the company, especially with the reported dangers and risks with Boeing aircraft.
Being prepared for anything coming one's way on air travel is a great way to anticipate what lies ahead, especially with the unpredictable and fragile nature of aviation. Now, Flighty 4.0's update offers a version powered by machine learning, one that would help in predicting why one's flight is delayed and tell users what might be the reason behind it, all available on the app.
