Live air traffic

The airport is outside the live data fetch area: no data is fetched for aircraft around it, so they may not appear on the live map.

Flight counts, delays and cancellations

Not available yet. Daily departure and arrival counts, delays and cancellations need airline schedule data, which havayolu does not use yet. ADS-B only shows where an aircraft is; it cannot tell a flight’s scheduled time, delay or cancellation. This page therefore does not show or estimate them. For the status of your flight, check with your airline or the airport operator.

Landings and take-offs observed through ADS-B, and the runways in use, will be added in a later version, shown as “observed” movements rather than schedules. For the limits of ADS-B, see the About page.
