Track Any Flight Online
My wife is currently flying to Chicago, but I am at work. Normally, I would have no idea if there was a delay, when she would be arriving or where in flight she was. Fortunately, I can track her trip in real-time with a flight tracking service like FlightView from RLM Software. With FlightView, I can enter any airline and flight number along with a date and it will give me real-time stats on the flight, such as altitude and speed. The site also features a map so I can see exactly where the plane is at any given time:
This technology has been around for a while, but I think it deserves another mention because I rarely hear about it anymore.

I tracked Suzanne's flight on Continental's website and they used Flightview. I never knew that Flightview's service could be used on all of the major carriers.
