ExpertFlyer Travel Information brings together seven reference tools that help you plan more carefully and avoid avoidable mistakes. Look up the minimum connection time at any airport, check visa and passport requirements before you book, review on-time reliability history for a specific flight, and identify which airlines have agreements to rebook you if your itinerary falls apart. Each tool is available independently so you can answer specific questions without sorting through general travel apps.

What you can look up with Travel Information

Check flight reliability and live FAA delay notifications before you travel

Flight Reliability Ratings show the percentage of time any specific flight or route arrived on time over the past two months, plus the average late arrival time. Airport Delay Notifications show current delays published by the FAA at US airports, with delay reason codes and their definitions available inline.

Verify minimum connect times before booking a tight connection

Search any airport to see the published Minimum Connect Time for connections, including the standard MCT and any exceptions by airline, flight, or terminal. Narrow the search by airline and connection type, covering domestic to domestic, domestic to international, and international to international, to confirm your specific connection is valid before you book.

Plan international routing and check mileage allowances with MPM and Connecting Cities

Maximum Permitted Mileage tells you whether a proposed routing from origin to destination stays within the allowed mileage for that fare. Connecting Cities returns all predetermined single and double connection points between two cities. Both tools are essential for building or validating complex international itineraries before pricing them.

Get visa, health, passport, customs, currency, and airport tax requirements in one place

The Visa, Health and Passport section covers entry requirements by country of citizenship, health warnings and vaccine requirements, passport rules, customs regulations, currency import and export restrictions, and airport taxes. Run a single search to pull everything you need before traveling to a new country.

How frequent flyers use Travel Information

Minimum connect time lookup for a connecting itinerary

You are booking a connection and need to know if your layover is long enough

Search the connecting airport in the Minimum Connect Time tool and specify the airlines and connection type for your itinerary. The results show the published MCT along with any airline-specific or terminal-specific exceptions. If your scheduled layover falls below the MCT, the connection is not valid and you can address it before buying the ticket rather than after.

Interline agreements for rebooking after a cancellation

Your flight is canceled and you want to know which airlines can rebook you

Search the operating airline in the Interline Agreements tool to see every carrier that has a ticketing agreement with them. Knowing which airlines are interline partners means you can specifically request rebooking onto a partner carrier at the service desk, rather than accepting whatever the agent offers or waiting to find out what options exist.

Visa requirements and mileage routing for international travel

You are planning a long haul international trip and need to confirm entry and routing requirements

Use the Visa, Health and Passport section to pull entry requirements, vaccine recommendations, customs rules, and currency restrictions for your destination based on your citizenship and departure country. Then use Maximum Permitted Mileage to confirm your proposed routing does not exceed the mileage allowance for the fare, which would trigger an extra mileage surcharge at ticketing.
