How to Export Your myFlightradar24 Flights, Step by Step

What are the exact steps?

1. Sign in to my.flightradar24.com. A browser on your computer or phone works.
2. Open Settings, then the Export tab. The export page is at my.flightradar24.com/settings/export.
3. Click Download CSV. myFlightradar24 generates a CSV file of your logged flights.
4. Send the file to the device where you will use it. AirDrop, email or a cloud drive all work.

Flightradar24's support article “Download MyFlightradar24 flight history” says only that it is possible to download a CSV file of all your flights, and points to the export page. The tab and button names come from the site itself. If the page looks different when you sign in, search the Flightradar24 support site for the same article title.

What is in the file, and what format is it?

The export is a CSV file, a plain-text table that opens in any spreadsheet. 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, cabin class, seat and notes. Some older entries only carry a year or a month.

Flightradar24's support site also describes the file for its own importer: Date, Origin and Destination are the only mandatory fields, dates must be in year-month-day order (for example 2010-04-16), and airport codes can be ICAO or IATA. That is a useful check if you ever edit the file, though you should keep an unedited copy.

Is the CSV download the same as the per-flight CSV?

No. Flightradar24 has also offered CSV and KML downloads of the track of a single flight on its flight pages, for paying subscribers (its blog describes plan-based limits that may have changed). That kind of file holds positions for one flight, not your logbook. Use the Export tab in your myFlightradar24 settings to get the whole list.

How to do it with FlightLog

FlightLog is a flight diary for iPhone, iPad and Android, and it reads the myFlightradar24 CSV directly. The full steps are in the myFlightradar24 import guide. In short:

1. Export the CSV as above and send it 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. Flights already in your journal are flagged and left unchecked by default.
4. Confirm the import.

Where an old entry has only a year or a month, FlightLog fills the missing part rather than dropping the flight. Rows where both times are 00:00 are treated as unknown times, not midnight departures. Distances and carbon estimates are recomputed, so you do not need them in the file. A single file can hold up to 5,000 rows.

Every feature is free with your 10 most recent flights active, and Premium unlocks the complete history. If an import takes you past the free limit, the extra flights stay visible but locked, and nothing is deleted. To compare the two apps, see FlightLog vs myFlightradar24.

What if I use another app?

See how to export your flights from Flighty, or the guides for OpenFlights and FlightMemory. If you have no export at all, how to find your flight history lists where your past flights are recorded, and how to keep a flight diary covers the habit.
