As airport chaos becomes the new norm, popular flight-tracking app Flighty released a new “Airport Intelligence” feature that gives users real-time alerts about airport disruptions with reasons across 14,000 airports in the world. This release is timely, given that tensions in the Middle East have caused multiple flight delays, cancellations, and airport shutdowns, while the U.S. has been facing a shortage of Transportation Security Administration agents, leading to closed security checkpoints and extra-long lines.
The startup is releasing the feature as a web dashboard, as well, so all users can track disruptions for free.
