How to Export Your Flights From Flighty, Step by Step

What are the exact steps?

1. Open Flighty and tap Profile. It is the rightmost tab in the app.
2. Tap Settings, then Account Data. Account Data sits in the Manage section.
3. Tap Export Your Flights. Flighty asks for an email address.
4. Open the email Flighty sends and save the attachment. On a phone, save it to the Files app so you can pick it later.

Flighty's public Help Center documents importing flights from other services, but we found no help page that describes the export. The menu names above come from the app itself. If your version looks different, contact Flighty through Settings, then Send Feedback.

What does the export contain?

The export covers the flights in your Flighty history. When you import it into FlightLog, these fields are read: flight number and airline, date and times, departure and arrival airports, aircraft type, tail number (registration), cabin class, seat and notes. Cancelled flights keep their status.

Why export your flights at all?

• A backup. A file in your own storage does not depend on any app or subscription.
• A move. You might want a second tool for other statistics, or a different app altogether.
• A record. Flight history is useful for taxes, expense reports, visa applications and just remembering.

Can I edit the file before importing it?

Leave it as it is. Flighty says its own importer only supports original, unmodified files from the listed services. Opening a file in a spreadsheet and saving it can change dates and formats, so keep an untouched copy.

How to do it with FlightLog

FlightLog is a flight diary for iPhone, iPad and Android. It reads a Flighty export directly, and the full steps are in the Flighty import guide. In short:

1. Export from Flighty as above and save the file to your phone.
2. In FlightLog, tap the scan button in the middle of the bottom bar, then choose the file import.
3. Pick the file and review the flights found. Anything already in your journal is flagged and left unchecked by default, so nothing is added twice.
4. Confirm the import.

Distances and carbon estimates are recomputed by FlightLog, and durations are recalculated whenever the flight number is known. Old flights with no flight number are still imported if the route and date are in the file. FlightLog reads up to 5,000 rows from one file.

Every feature is free with your 10 most recent flights active, and Premium unlocks the complete history. An import that takes you past the free limit still goes through in full: the extra flights stay visible but locked, and nothing is deleted. For a feature comparison, see FlightLog vs Flighty.

What if I use another app?
