Flight path

Is there a website that shows you the actual route a plane took during its flight?
Can't seem to find one or at least not one that shows on my kindle!!!

Also is there a website that shows all arrivals for an airport for a particular day?
Again I can only find today and forward, not a day in the past. I can find the details of my flight but.not others that arrived that day w/o their flight numbers

    Flightaware will show routings and cover previous dates
    You used to be able to use Flightstats for searching airport on specific dates, they then went to a beta version where this functionality seemed to disappear and now they only offer a paid service

    Last Thursday. Flew into Gibraltar well we should've, wasdiverted to Malaga. Wanted to know if all other flights that day diverted too.

    And I wanted the flight path taken to see how close we was before diversion.


    It could well be that I trying to access via a kindle. Wouldn't be the first time I've had problems

    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....
  • OP You do realize how many ie. how few flights land in Gibraltar on any one day?.

    Probably a maximum of 6 or 7 so landing at different times of day plus the fact that diversions to Malaga because of high wind are not unusual.
    If you go down to the woods today you better not go alone.

    Yes barely a handful arrive and depart.
    Yes I am aware that diversion often occurs. In our case visibility or lack of, was the issue.


    I was on a diverted flight and wanted to know if the other arrivals were diverted or managed to land.
    But whilst I know our flight code and departure airport, I don't know the others.
