We are delighted to announce that the Flightradar24 API is now available.
Our REST API grants you immediate access to real-time flight data.
What do you get?
The API gives you live access to real-time aircraft flight movement information including latitude, longitude, speed, and altitude alongside key flight and aircraft information such as origin, destination, callsign, registration and equipment type. All powered by the largest independent ADS-B surveillance network in the world. You also get real-time data on airlines and airports.

As a Flightradar24 subscriber (not API), can we get some basic access without additional fee, please?
An API like how many AirFrance in the air, and/or follow a limited number of flights, etc.
Thanks in advance.
As a contributing FR24 feeder, please consider to give us the “Explorer” plan for free.
I’m interested to find a way to collect some informations not transmitted by the ADS-B like the origin and destination airport of a flight; the API access will be perfect for this purpose.
If you think that it “too much”, perhaps data access could be limited to aircraft in the vicinity of our ground station.
Regards
Awesome!

Yes, you can use the API to source the data and point it to your desired storage location.
