Keith T 2 Report post Posted September 15, 2007 flightstats.com is also a very useful tool for punctuality info of specific flights. I rely on it to decide which flight to book when I need to be somewhere on time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BC Tam 2 Report post Posted September 15, 2007 It certainly is a useful tool. However, accuracy of info available can be largely discounted I guess. In the BKI page I linked to, many afternoon flights still listed as 'enroute' Also note, no flights listed as landed - yikes ! Perhaps info on BKI is not updated automatically ? Will have to try play around with displays for major airports to see if it's any different Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samuel Chy 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2007 quite accurate, i must said. i believe Adrian, and Kenneth will agree as well. just now we spot the KE AB6 landed at BKI soil around the time they mentioned in the web. also, i suppose the time table update is depend on the airline. look at this link, only an hour later, the website already updated with the latest (47 mins behind schedule) arrival time.

Louis L. 2 Report post Posted September 16, 2007 it was FAX. thanks for the reply sam...obviously it's FAX....but y it uses different name??? or the name got other meaning??? such like airlines that will not operate soon(not making money) ...joking ..no offence..... PEACE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samuel Chy 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2007 not sure about that, Louis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC Tam 2 Report post Posted September 16, 2007 or the name got other meaning??? You might be on to something here - Dinar Lineas Aereas, sounds a bit latino. My guess - Dinar as in dinosaur ? Lineas Aereas as in airline ? Put 2 & 2 together, "dinosaur airline" Which is what FAX will be as a flying entity in a couple of weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
