Google flight status
Hi,
Previously using my iPhone I would Google a flight, eg VS19 and at the top of the list would be the staus of the flight.
For the last couple of months the flight status has disappeared. Can I get this back at it was a really handy tool.
Many thanks

On my Android phone, flight information is provided through the Google Now app.
An iOS version is available. Install it and see if it brings that functionality back on your phone. You may have to tweak the settings.
Google Now also scans your Gmail account to automatically provide flight updates and other travel information.

Specifically to your question, though...I've had mixed results in general with this shortcut. VS19 shows up just fine for me, whereas US2128 works OK on my laptop, but not from the phone. For consistency's sake, I'm using Chrome across all devices. I just tried again from the phone, and the info came up correctly. YMMV?
