Flightradar24 flight detail and track
One flight by its Flightradar24 id (from flights, airport or live), or the latest tracked flight of a flight number: status, airline, operator, aircraft (type, model, registration, age, serial number, photos), origin and destination with terminal and gate, scheduled, actual and estimated times, flight time and delay, the aircraft's previous flights and the full flown track (position, altitude, ground speed, heading and time of each point, oldest first). Flight ids stay available for past flights.
Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.
Parameters
| name | type | description |
|---|---|---|
id | string | Flight id, e.g. 42435fc4. Give this or number. |
number | string | Flight number; returns its live flight, else its most recent tracked flight, e.g. AA100. Example: AA100 |
Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).
Example
curl "https://api.api.sh/flightradar24/v1/flight" \
-H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY" import os, requests
res = requests.get(
"https://api.api.sh/flightradar24/v1/flight",
params={},
headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json() const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/flightradar24/v1/flight");
const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json(); Response
A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
