What's the tech behind getting a United flight status?

Inside United Airlines' operational headquarters, every flight is statused and tracked in real-time using on-board GPS and other tracking technologies equipped in the aircraft, in addition to ATC information. Therefore, whether a plane is in-route, delayed, or parked at one of the airports worldwide, United Airlines' management regularly to checks the status of their flights to keep the system running smoothly, and report on delays, arrivals, departures, & cancellations to the public.

The same technology that United Airlines uses for its flight tracker allows passengers as well to be able to status any United Airlines flight in real-time as well. That is where the United Airlines flight status system comes in handy. The online tracking system is made available by allowing you to track every flight simply by searching for the specific United flight number. In case you don't have the flight number, you can always use the names of the departure and arrival airports along with the date to know the status of your flight.

Using the United flight tracker, you can stay up-to-date with all the latest information regarding your flight. It helps you find out whether your United Airlines flight is delayed, canceled, or is on-time. Furthermore, it also allows you to track your loved ones' position and arrive exactly at the right time to pick them up from the airport.

History of United Airlines

The history of United Airlines goes back to the 1920s. From Swallow aircraft to Dreamliner, the airline has come a long way over the past nine decades. Initially, it started out as the Varney Air Lines by Walter T. Varney in 1926. In April 1926, United's first aircraft took off and completed a voyage from Pasco, Washington, to Boise, Idaho.Later on, Varney also started the Varney Speed Lines in 1934, which was later called the Continental Airlines. Being the first to introduce the Boeing 777 in 1995 and becoming a founding member of the Star Alliance in 1997 – the airline has collaborated to an unprecedented degree to develop the aviation industry.Over the years, both airlines developed a great deal and have hundreds of United Airlines flight destinations all around the globe. In 2010, both the airlines merged under the name United Airlines and now operate as the world's third-largest airline at present.+
