Anyone else have old trips stay on iOS Home Screen?



I have logged out and back in and even deleted the app, rebooted and reinstalled and it came back.

Advice?

I think I've seen this before occasionally, but even then I don't recall it sticking around very long.

Maybe try selecting Travel-Ready Center and see if that resets anything? Or change phone date temporarily to far out in future and re-open app.

Last resort: Book a new flight for a few days out to replace that one.

Love it - FT solution: buy another ticket.

Seems there's a new iOS "Countdown" widget. Tapping it brings you to the next/upcoming itinerary.

working for me on iPhone…looks very similar.

had your friend logged into the app yet with their credentials? Do they have expert mode enabled in their account settings (think this needs to be done on the actual website).

Weird, my friend logged in and couldn't see the information, I then tried to use my account and the area is empty as well (attached). I have expert mode enable on the website, and have no problem on my Android phone.

Works for me. Still plenty of PZ/I space left.

Try log out and log in again with same account.

Seems like the same issue I had once:

Thanks for all the replies, I tried again after 30 minutes on the same device, the availability just showed up without me changing anything.

Interesting update to the iOS flight status tab. Rather than clicking traditional "Where is this aircraft coming from?", the initial flight status screen now directly provides information on the inbound flight. However, I think the UI is clunky. For example, in the screenshot below, one could get confused that the airplane is in Denver as the outbound segment (ORD-DEN) is repeated. Will get better over time I'm sure.

While I always check on where my plane is coming from, putting it right on the page could confuse less savvy travelers. I think it should stay an option and not a default

Agreed. The information is not intuitively presented.
