You have to set up an account on flightstats.com to use alerts. But there is no cost to do so. The Wall Street Journal tested their alerts against those of many other services including the airlines, online travel agencies and some of the sites listed above and found them to be superior in all respects. BTW, FlightStats flight tracker provides gate arrival information. The rest give runway times. We all know there can be a big difference.

Great post Dave and very informative. I have been using FlightStats and google to hit up my flight information on the run for a while now. Is there a way to have a service notify you if your gate or flight changes?? Now thats something The Admin can use - FOR SURE! That FBOWeb really is a very cool site!
