How to interpret the Flight Information Block

 

Flight Info Sample

There are three rows of information in the Flight Information Block:

Row 1 contains the Flight Number

In the example above, UA7155 identifies a United Airlines flight (UA is United's Airline Code)

Row 2 contains the Departure Airport and Arrival Airport codes. 

In the example, DEN indicates the flight departed from Denver (DEN) and will arrive in El Paso (ELP)

Row 3 contains the Departure and Arrival Times in 24-hour format.

In the example, the flight departed at 16:06 hours (4:06 PM) Denver time and will arrive at 17:44 hours (5:44 PM) El Paso time.   Time feeds come from the FAA.
