Waypoint — a free live map/radar for Infinite Flight ✈️

:ticket: Boarding Pass

Your flight, printed like the airline would — colours, layout, tear-off stub, barcode. Find it under Profile → Boarding pass, or straight from your crew centre.

:airplane: The airline’s own look

36 airlines get the structure of their real pass, not just their colour: the header bands and stripes, the seat box of the low-cost carriers, the city-first layout of Delta, KLM and Air France, the frequent-flyer programme, and bilingual labels where the real pass prints them. Lufthansa, Emirates, Qatar, British Airways, Delta, United, American, Turkish, Singapore, Ryanair, easyJet, KLM, Air France, Swiss, Austrian, Etihad, Cathay Pacific, ANA, JAL, Korean Air, Air Canada, Iberia, Alaska, Southwest, JetBlue, Wizz Air, Vueling, Qantas, Virgin Atlantic, Finnair, Aer Lingus, Eurowings, Air New Zealand, TAP, Saudia, WestJet. Every other airline gets a layout family in its colour, and you can override both.

:airplane_departure: Your virtual airline on it

Pick your VA and the pass carries its logo, plus your rank and callsign straight from the roster. It says “Virtual Airline · Infinite Flight” on both halves, so nobody mistakes it for the real thing.

:mobile_phone: Two formats

Landscape for chats and desktop. A portrait story format for phones, with boarding, gate and seat as the big row and a square 2D code like a wallet pass.

:high_voltage: Prefilled, not typed

From a fleet booking on your desk, from the PIREP form, from a group flight, or from one of your recent Infinite Flight flights. Your name comes from your account. Nothing is stored on our side: the pass is its link, and it renders anywhere the link is pasted.

:speech_balloon: Straight to Discord

One button posts the pass to your crew Discord. Airlines can route it like any other post with the new webhook kind “A pilot shares a boarding pass”.

:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: The small print

Zone, flight time, member number, PNR and sequence, a BCBP machine line under the barcode, times marked local or Zulu, and a tear-off stub with its own barcode.

For me real world traffic is all cramped in one place and the rest is empty.

First of all, what an amazing tracker. Something I’d love to see is the ability to make PIREPs like you would IRL. Just an idea though.

:airplane: New: meet Sky Art – draw anything on the map and fly it in Infinite Flight.

Ever wanted to write your name across Europe or fly a giant heart over the Alps? Now you can. Sky Art turns your drawing into a flight plan, and when you fly it, your track draws the picture in the sky.

It works in three steps: Draw, Adjust, Fly it.
• draw freehand, pick a template or a shape, write a text or turn a simple picture into lines
• search an airport or city and your drawing jumps right there
• set the size, speed and altitude, or give every part its own altitude
• hit Preview flight and watch the aircraft fly your art in time-lapse before you take off
• send it straight to Infinite Flight, big drawings are split into parts automatically
• Sky Art warns you about turns too tight to fly, tap the warning and the map shows you where

Proud of your drawing? Share it to the gallery:
• like the drawings you enjoy, the most liked one each week becomes Picture of the week
• fly someone else’s art and tap I flew it while you’re still in the session (Training or Expert)
• a Halloween section opens on 19 October, so get your pumpkins and ghosts ready

Find it on the map under All of Waypoint, or go to waypoint-live.app/skyart

:airplane: Sky Art draws rounder curves, and you choose how fine

Circles, hearts, spirals and letters used to fly with visible corners. Not anymore: curves are now traced every 1.5°, so your drawing comes out smooth in the sky and on the map.

Want it even smoother? In the Adjust step you can pick how fine the curves are:
• normal: about 150 waypoints, usually one flight plan
• fine: about 400 waypoints
• very fine: up to 1000 waypoints
Right below the choice you see what it costs, e.g. “391 waypoints · 2 files for Infinite Flight”

Your saved drawings get the round curves automatically, in the same spot. Anything you edited point by point, drew freehand or opened from a share link stays exactly as it was.

Also fixed:
• the map no longer cuts corners off curves when you zoom out
• tight-turn warnings no longer pile up along one bend, a tight stretch now shows as one warning
• traced pictures keep their round edges and their sharp corners

:airplane: New: Show a direct line to the destination instead of the flight plan

Prefer the clean Flightradar24 look? When you select a flight, the map can now draw just a direct line from the aircraft to its destination, without all the waypoints in between.

• turn it on in Settings → Map → Route ahead: Direct to destination
• the line follows the aircraft live and ends right at the destination airport
• the flown trail stays as it is, coloured by altitude
• works on the map, in 3D follow and in the app
• flights without a known destination keep showing their flight plan, or nothing, as before
• your choice is remembered on your device; the default stays Flight plan

Also fixed:
• after switching from Real world to Infinite Flight, tapping a plane could still open the real-world panel
• the 3D follow camera no longer jumps when you pinch to zoom, and the trail drawn in 3D no longer flickers when you turn the view
• a gap in the Ju 52’s wings is closed

Man, just wanna tell you congrats for the app!

Been using it for a few days and it’s just amazing.
From all the trackers we’ve had all these years, this is the best one I’ve seen.
Absolutely insane work!
