Track Flights for Free

There are a quite a bit of these floating around the Internet. Both Travelocity and Hotwire offer flight tracking services. I like the free FlightAware version of this service. I enjoy the flight information that it gives (estimated time to arrival, etc) and the various options that let you find the flight you’re looking for, even if you’ve forgotten the flight number.

The interface is easy to use, and the flight path map it creates gives you real time positioning of the airplane and the route it took to get to it’s destination. So let’s say your sister is coming into town tomorrow and you’d like to find out exactly how long the flight is delayed and exactly where it is.

That’s where FlightAware’s live flight tracker comes in 🙂 Let us know what you think or if you have another favorite.

There is also the tracker from FlightStats that comes integrated with a nice little Google map. Both of these services only show the flight on the map when the aircraft enters US airspace. I’ll keep my eyes out for a free one that lets you track planes in international airspace.

C’est la Fin des Haricots!

Well this week you do end up getting a French lesson of the week.

C’est la fin des haricots means “that’s the end of the beans!” It’s a expression that baffles even me (they are French, granted), but it’s a little lesson embedded here for all of the young and not-so young students who read this site. Most of you guys are done with final, so kudos to you all!

Hope they all went well and you knocked them out like Ali did Liston (in the rematch).

Ok, that was a really bad joke, but hey, come on, it’s Friday and I’ve done some work on cutting back the corny jokes of late. But you love them, I know you do..!
