JFK terminal 4 landing
Guys - on flight aware and other sites, does landed or arrival time indicate touch down on tarmac or at gate? I'm actually monitoring a flight on Emirates so wondering if there is another site I should use which shows gate time. Thanks

I've never really tested its accuracy, but flightware makes a distinction between "arrival" time and "gate" time or something. It really seems to be just add 10mins.
Haven't seen that on any regular public facing information portals.

They do not "just add 10 mins" it is *usually* accurate (at least for US carriers). This is really a question or the EK forum as non-us carriers might report differently.

Just add 10 minutes....haha. The FA announced once that we were "one hour early" into JFK one time and I was seated not far from her and said that we weren't there yet. We arrived on time to the minute.

Flight aware's website shows both times.
The flight aware app shows only one set of times at a time. I believe I recall that when the plane is on the ground it shows gate departure and arrival, and when it's in the air it shows takeoff and landing times.
