For a while, Google’s flight tracker tool has allowed searchers to enter an airline’s flight number, showing a link to that flight’s updated information on www.flightstats.com.
Google announced yesterday that it is now included those flight stats right in the search results. See below for WestJet’s flight WS 208:
This is great for the user – a simple and effective way to find out if his or her flight is on time. Of course, WestJet guests also have the option of visiting WestJet.com’s Flight Tracker to find out the status of flights.
Now, how do we tell FlightStats.com that they’ve spelled WestJet wrong? 10 lashes with a wet noodle!
