About Us
FlyingOver at a glance
- What it is
- A flight companion app for iPhone, iPad and Android: follow your flight on an offline map in airplane mode, check flight status and gate changes, see connection guidance and keep a log of your flights.
- How it follows your flight
- FlyingOver doesn't use GPS. Before takeoff it saves your route, schedule and an offline map; in flight it estimates the plane's position from them, and corrects it with live data whenever you're online.
- Offline maps
- Prepared before takeoff along your route. The most detailed map needs about 500 MB of free space; with less, the app saves a lighter map.
- Price
- Free with one active future flight and your saved past flights. A Premium subscription adds more saved flights, detailed flight and aircraft information, connection guidance, map themes and more of FlightBook.

App developed by a frequent traveler. I wrote the code for this app between layovers on frequent flights in Argentina and Europe. I'm a window seat kind of person, and I spend most of my time on the plane looking out the window, trying to figure out which country or city I'm flying over.
While searching for apps to help me with this, I realized that no one really addresses this problem. There are excellent apps for flight alerts and others for general aviation information, but none for the in-flight experience.
Several times, to test this app, I paid €20 for internet access so I could run the app in the air and find bugs, even though the plane ticket cost €30.
The application currently works at the core level, and I am sure it offers a good experience for users. So far, we have had good reviews. You will probably see me uploading updates frequently, either because of some errors in production or because I am obsessed with trying to reduce service response times so that the user has a better experience. We almost never have updates in production due to failures; they are usually for improvements.
I hope you like the app.

gero@flyingover.appHow we write our guides
The FlyingOver Editorial Team publishes the travel guides on this site in English, Italian, German, Spanish and French. They are researched and drafted with the help of AI tools, and every guide follows the same rules:
- Official sources only. Facts come from governments, regulators, EU institutions and airports' own websites, and each guide lists its sources at the end.
- No invented numbers. If an airport or regulator doesn't publish a figure, such as a minimum connection time, the guide says so instead of guessing.
- Dated. Each guide shows when its facts were last checked, and rules that are about to change are marked as not yet in force.
- Honest about the app. FlyingOver doesn't use GPS: it estimates your position from the route and schedule saved before takeoff. Guides describe only what the app actually does.
- Not legal advice. Guides about passenger rights explain the rules; they don't replace an airline, a regulator or a lawyer.
- Check before you rely on it. Official sources change over time and a guide may not be updated right away, so confirm important details directly with the source or your airline.
