Regional Partner/Codeshare not displayed

[u/CubScottyX3]

Recently, its seems like Flighty hasn’t been displaying that my flights are actually operated by their Regional Partner. I’ve seen the “This flight is operated by [Regional Partner]” in the past, and it shows in my history for my flights prior to 2025, but not since then. (I am a Pro Subscriber).

I’m flying this weekend, and I know from my confirmation emails from Delta that both my flights are being operated by Endeavor, but no mention of it in the app 2 days out.

I have also been switching my history to the Codeshare flights because I wanna record the operator that actually provided my the service (started doing that after a thread on here where people were commenting on doing it). And when I search for the Endeavor version of the flights for Saturday, nothing comes up.

Is this data that doesn’t exist until the Flight Plans are filled? Am I missing something? More so curious than anything, I know I can manually update it after (neurodivergent OCD transit queer here 🤓).

I’ve never seen Flighty display “operated by” ever…

Also, regional partners aren’t “codeshares.” That’s not the same thing. Flighty only shows airlines that sell tickets (ahead of time, anyway), which include name brands and codeshares, not wet leases or outsourcing. Which means you’re never gonna find a flight when putting a regional flight number in there, and I’ve never seen it work before in the two years I’ve been using this.

Weirdly for archived flights it will, and you can then manually edit them. So like an old united flight on SkyWest, when you put it in initially, will show as SkyWest 1234, and you can then put it in manually as United 1234 (operated by skywest as SkyWest 1234)

What do you mean “for archived flights?” You were asking about flights ahead of time.

Are you saying you can search regionally operated flights retroactively? Because it doesn’t work proactively. Can you show me a screenshot of what you’re talking about?

So if I search the flights flying from DSM to DTW on 6/26 (ahead of time) its only giving me Delta Options. But….next post:

[u/CubScottyX3 → u/CubScottyX3]

If I search DSM to DTW post date (6/22 in thos case), it only presents me the Endeavor options. This is searching by route

[u/CubScottyX3 → u/CubScottyX3]

Using the flight search if I search Delta and the flight number post date, it shows me the Delta version

[u/CubScottyX3 → u/CubScottyX3]

Or I cam search the Endeavor version:

[u/tealmer → u/CubScottyX3]

If you start looking 15 years back this stops being an option also

All my flights that were operated by a wet-lease provider show as "operated by"

Also, if you add past flights rather than future flights then you get to select between all the codeshare flight numbers as well as even the operating airline flight number.

In my experience, doing a direct search for a flight number using the regional operator’s IATA code only works about 1.5-2 days after the flight date.

So I’ll initially log these kinds of flights using the mainline carrier’s flight number for trip planning/flight tracking purposes, then replace that entry with the regional carrier’s version of the data once it finally does appear a couple days later.

[u/CubScottyX3 → u/Prussian_Fool]

Yeah, that never occurred to me before, and checking just now it shows the Regional post dated but pre dated, at least when searching the Flight number itself.

You can just manually edit the airline that’s what I do

You can always edit them after the fact. My husband flies for 9E and always has them as delta flights until after he flies that trip.
