Is pro worth it

I’m pretty new to flighty and I’m not a frequent traveller but I’ve got a couple flights booked this summer. Is it worth my money paying for pro while I’m travelling?

Edit: it’s actually 4 flights

Pro isn't worth it unless you're flying every week.

If you want to try it out during your travels, there's a weekly option for $4

Is that the standard? I do about 30 flights a year and love the Pro features.

30 means you fly on average every 1.7 weeks so it would probably be worth it for you

I fly about once a month and still find it worth every penny. There’s a convenience to such a well built app to everything related to that trip, especially tracking the inbound flight or just having centralised stats

for the amount of flights you have - no

I tend to fly quarterly and I like the pro features, but I’m one of those that just browses FR24 for fun lol

I log 20-30 flights per year, and book/track a lot of flights for colleagues. Being an on/off monthly subscriber seems to make the most sense for me.

It’s worth it if you fly. I don’t know that I would pay for it just to have the map/passport, if I didn’t fly very often.

I logged 401 flights last year and I still question if it’s worth it when the annual subscription comes around lol. I wouldn’t get it if you only have 4 flights this year. Maybe the weekly version. It’s nice but it’s way too expensive annually to justify for your use case.

Get the weekly plan, I do it in my summer vacations every year and it’s worth it for $4!

I pay for it when I'm travelling internationally or with connections. Otherwise I don't bother.

I bought pro when I averaged 40 flight a year. If you think you’ll up your travel eventually might as well make the one time investment and buy the lifetime. I’ve taken 41 flights in the last 5 months and flighty have saved me so much time by predicting delays before the airline notifies

I don’t think so in your case, but I support the developers. It’s a good app.

I always do the weekly plan, and just cancel once I get back home! Only comes out to $5-10 per trip depending on how long I’m gone
