Can I find out what aircraft I'm flying on with my flight number?

Question

I have my flight number and I would like to know what aircraft type I'm flying on. How can I do this?

Answer 1

GO to the airlines website your flying on and check the flight number, most will have the type of aircraft your flying on, and flight duration(time)

Answer 2

Go to the airlines of which your flying and and the look up the info, however whatever the details say they are rarely correct because of flight delays and using alternate aircraft, its Boeing or Lockheed, and it depends on how far your travel ling, short flights you may be on a puddle jumper. i would not worry...flying is safer that any other form of trave...have a nice trip.

Answer 3

Model number is probably on dash..............

Answer 4

check with the airline or check the seat back pocket for the safety instructions. That will tell you what type of aircraft you are on. Flight numbers have nothing to do with it. Flight numbers have to do with the direction the aircraft is flying. i.e. south flying aircrafts usually have even flight numbers. Northbound usually have odd numbers. Generally domestic flight numbers are 3 digits.western flights are even numbers too. western flights are odd numbers. International flights are usually 2 digits and follow the same as eat/west bound flight numbers. Airlines do not have to follow these guidelines to a "T"

Answer 5

Google Flight Aware, go the site and enter a tail number or flight number........and there you have it mate!!!!

Answer 6

No.  The flight number may have some correlation to the aircraft type, but the only way to find out for sure is to check your itinerary or call the airline.  Most airlines give the shorter flight numbers to their larger mainline aircraft, and longer, like four digits to the smaller planes.  However, this still doesn't give you the type.  The easiest way is just to call the airline.
