~Eliminating travel anxiety through a tech-first approach with real-time tracking, instant disruption alerts and seamless airport transitions~
National, March 2026: Cleartrip, a Flipkart company and one of India’s fastest-growing online travel platforms, today announced the launch of its ‘Live Flight Status’ feature, designed to provide travellers with real-time updates and assistance throughout their journey.
The new feature offers travellers up-to-the-minute information on flight schedules, delays, cancellations, gate changes and baggage belt details, all within the Cleartrip app. By bringing this information into one intuitive interface, the company aims to help travellers stay informed and make timely decisions during unexpected travel situations.
The launch comes at a time when global air travel continues to face irregular disruptions from weather events to geopolitical developments, increasing the need for timely and reliable travel information. Cleartrip’s Live Flight Status feature is designed to help travellers navigate such moments with greater clarity and confidence.
Manoj Awasthi, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Cleartrip, said, “At Cleartrip, we see booking confirmation not as the end of the customer journey, but as the beginning of the traveller’s trip. Our goal is to support travellers beyond the transaction and stay present throughout their journey. With ‘Live Flight Status’, we are taking a step in that direction—giving travellers real-time insights so they can stay informed, respond quickly to changes, and experience travel that is less stressful and far more predictable.”
Arnav Sharma, Group Product Manager, Cleartrip, added, “Travel today is incredibly dynamic, from weather to airspace disruptions, plans can change quickly. What travellers need in those moments is timely, reliable information. With ‘Live Flight Status’, we are extending Cleartrip’s role beyond booking to becoming a dependable travel companion that keeps travellers informed and in control throughout their journey.”
The feature is also part of Cleartrip’s broader approach to solve for travel-related anxieties through product innovation. Over the past year, the company has introduced features such as Price Trends, designed to address the 'price increase & drop anxiety' faced by millions of travellers, helping them make faster, more confident booking decisions without fear of missing out on the best fares.
With ‘Live Flight Status’, Cleartrip is now extending that support beyond booking to the travel journey itself. This feature has been designed with first-time and frequent travellers alike in mind. From reminders and check-in support to real-time disruption alerts, Cleartrip aims to help users stay prepared and informed at every stage of their journey.
