FlightByte

FlightByte gives Claude live flight status and change alerts through the FlightByte flight status API.

Ask about a flight by carrier, flight number and date, and Claude returns its current phase, gate, terminal, delays and best departure and arrival times, plus the full change history. When one flight number flies several legs on the same day, Claude picks the right leg by origin airport.

To be told about changes instead of asking again, Claude can watch a flight with a webhook subscription. FlightByte then posts every change (gate changes, delays, departures, arrivals, baggage belt and more, 23 typed events in total) to your endpoint, signed with HMAC-SHA256 and retried with backoff.

What you can do:

• Look up a flight and its timeline (get_flight, search_flights, get_flight_timeline)
• Watch flights and manage the watch: create, update, pause, resume and delete subscriptions
• Debug a webhook receiver: send a signed test event, list deliveries and events
• Search the FlightByte docs and read any page while writing an integration (no API key needed)

The webhook signing secret is returned once when a subscription is created and is never revealed or rotated through the server, so secrets stay out of the conversation. Requires a FlightByte account; the free plan includes 3 watched flights and 120 lookups a month.
