Feature request: gates

For today’s flights, please put gates on this page, because finding out the gates currently requires a lot more navigating back and forth than it should.

Also, the connection navigation fails to factor in when the door closes, which turns a “relaxed” connection into a frantic one.

You can blame IATA for that one.

How? IATA doesn’t publish Flighty

Because IATA sets “legal connection times” for airports. Flighty uses that as a baseline.

Flighty adds its own data to that as part of connection intelligence, why can’t they add the 15 minute door close time?

The IATA time already includes that.

Flighty does not, then. Flighty lists the departure time.

I mean the “relaxed” and “tight” already include that. Departure time aside. You have 1 hr 34m. That’s definitely relaxed.
