Welcome to the fourth Infinite Flight World Tour! It’s time to come together once again and fly around the globe on a 31 day journey that covers approximately 42,000 NM / 100hrs in the air!
This edition begins in East Asia with the opening route taking us from Beijing to Taipei before continuing onward around the world. We’ve made a conscious effort to include airports we haven’t featured before to bring fresh variety to the series. It’s set to be another epic journey, and we look forward to flying with you along the way!
More details
How will it work?
Each day throughout August 2026, a featured flight leg will be highlighted, and these routes will also be reflected in the Expert Server ATC schedule. As the month unfolds, you’ll embark on a journey around the globe, flying a variety of airlines and aircraft in and out of a selection of handpicked airports. By day 31, you’ll touch down back where you started, completing the full circle of this world tour.
Similar to the ATC schedule, each route will officially be considered as the “live” or “featured” route for a 24-hour period, running from 0600Z to 0600Z each day. This extended time frame ensures maximum flexibility, making it easier for participants across all time zones to join in and enjoy the experience.
Live Mode
With the gradual rollout of live officially underway, we encourage those with access to try the world tour with fleet aircraft for the ultimate continuity experience, even if that means steering away from the suggested aircraft or real-world operations. Whether that’s scheduling an aircraft from a virtual airlines fleet or your own personal aircraft, using live will significantly enhance the feeling of travelling around the entire world. Remember: some airports are smaller than others, so we wouldn’t recommend using large widebodies on this trip.
This is an ALL SERVERS event. However, we encourage both pilots and ATC to use the Expert Server as the main server for the best experience. If you wish to follow along on the training & casual server, you are welcome to do so!
We encourage everyone to use the featured aircraft & airline for each route.
As always, expert server pilots are required to comply with IFATC and to follow ALL expert server rules. Failure to comply with ES rules will result in violations being issued.
Airports along the route will vary in size therefore delays are likely, especially during peak hours.
Infinite Flight staff will join in where possible. If you’d like to find out when staff members are flying, join our official discord server to chat with staff and other community members. It’s a great place to share your progress, find fellow pilots to fly with & have casual discussions!
FAQ
How can I appeal my Level 2 or 3 Violation?
If reported by ATC on the Expert Server for an infraction you will be issued a Level 2 or Level 3 Violation. This may be appealed here on the Community Forum by sending a direct message to @appeals where you should provide your callsign, display name, location, details surrounding the report, and a replay file which can easily be uploaded here!
How do I get IFATC at my event?
IFATC members are encouraged to staff all community events around the world! While events aren’t featured on the schedule, community members may use the schedule locations to create future events with guaranteed traffic!
Head over to our #live:events category to begin creating. You can use helpful tags like atc-needed and atc-staffed to let controllers know where they’re needed.
How can I get my event featured?
Community Events are now a staple of the community with users creating awesome events for others to enjoy. To get your event featured, all you have to do is create an event and publish it in Multiplayer > Events. From here, our team will manually review these events each month and hand-pick the ones we would like to officially feature!
Hi there，I remember that during our last world tour, we could click a link in IFC to directly access the flight mission, which was abandoned？ (Although this thing has little impact on the flight experience., I think it was a very distinctive function)
Funny how the route from DNMM to GMMN with Royal Air Maroc is at risk of no longer existing in real life due to an allegation by the Nigerian Aviation Authority on Royal Air Maroc
Can’t wait for it! Last uear was quite nice, this uear eith more aircraft and orobably more people will be aay better too. (A bit sad to see some countries missing in favor of other countries having more than one airport featured though)

You’ll be seeing me around
