GET
Live status of one flight
Supply a flight number independently of itinerary search. Search results often omit flight numbers. Times are local to each airport. Coverage is limited to a few days around today; use available_dates when choosing a day. A completed lookup with no matching status returns 404 and counts toward quota.
