Great logger you have. I have just purchased a membership and started to log my flights.
I was wondering if it's possible to add Antarctica as a continent? And specifically Teniente R. Marsh Airport (King George Islamd) (Code: TNM) to the logger? I have flown from that airport to Chile and would like to log it. I appreciate Antarctica is rarely visited by users, however there are regular commercial and chartered flights there, and it's only going to get more popular. It'd be great if you are able to add it. Thanks

Thank for the support! I've just added the airport you needed to the database, so you (and all the users of course) should be able to use it from now on. Antarctica should already by counted as a separate continent, but let me know if it doesn't seem to be the case or if you have any other request.
Cheers!

Thanks for the quick response and adding the airport.
Sorry - I wasn't clear before. I meant to say that Antarctica doesnt show up as it's own continent vector map. It also isn't shown as a continent on the global vector map.

Hum, this is much trickier. Unfortunately I'm using JvectorMap, a company offering this kind of map (it would be impossible to develop such a tool without going through a company such as this one), and the maps they offer do not have Antarctica implemented. I've seen that someone asked for this feature already in August last year (https://github.com/bjornd/jvectormap/issues/428) but they did not add this feature so far.
I did find however some kind of work around but I'm not sure how feasible it will be to implement it; I will have a look early next week to see if I can manage to add Antarctica at least to the global vector map and I will let you know.

Hey, no problem - I appreciate you taking the time to consider my request. >40,000 people are visiting Antarctica each year, mostly by ship, but hundreds (possibly several thousand) are flying either there or back, some both ways. It'd be great to future proof your logger by taking steps to fully integrate it if you can. Buy hey, I'm glad that it's implemented apart from the map - many loggers haven't even gone that for. Thanks for the good work.

So I had a look at this and adding Antarctica to the vector maps is not a trivial thing to do at all, as previously explained. However, I did see some people who were able to do so by creating their own maps. I will try to reach out to them next week to see how they did. Anyway, I don't think I'm going to be able to add this feature to the website for a while, since there are quite a few things more urgent than this ; but I can guarantee that I will have a look at this and try to implement this with the next major update of the website, probably around the end of the summer.
Cheers!

When viewing the Data table, is it possible for you to code it so that when sorting by "Travel Date" it will sub-sort by Departure Time. Currently when sorting, it usually displays the later flight before the earlier one on the same day.

Hi! It has been a while since we posted about Logmyflight and today I have exciting news to share with you. The beta of the next version of Logmyflight, featuring some new features and lots of improvements, is now ready. If you want to be a part of this and if you wish to test all the new features, just let me know by PM or by email and I will be in touch with instructions explaining how to access this beta version. Thank you!
