Anyone else watch Flight Radar 24..?

Seems once a day I check to see what time the VS75 departs / arrives as we are on this in 8-9 weeks... like just checking random flights to see what goes where though as well...

Is there any way to tell what if the previous flights are full though?...or what % of unoccupied seats there are on any flight once they depart?

You are so sad! I would never do that

Only because my flight is VS5 from LHR-MIA...but yes, from time to time I launch FR24 to see where my flight is.

Purely in the interests of research of course!

I check every morning at circa 6.00am when I get up. Just to check on the VS28 and 16 heading back in.
Lately they have been coming up from the Bay of Biscay.

Nice to see where the BA Orlando, Tampa and Fort Lauderdale planes are as well.

Interesting fact - the BA 2 engine planes take between 8 and 12 mins longer to get back than the VA 4 engine planes.

I question the use of the word "Interesting" Tom...but yes, I was!

Flight Radar first then arrange the pegs in colour order which Linda suggested to me.

I have to confess I've done that with boat crossings too!

You need a different programme for that.
