LAX arrivals and departures in real time

The boards below show today’s arrivals and departures at LAX: the scheduled time, the current status and, where available, the gate. Look up a single flight with the flight number on the ticket, or follow it on the radar above. Because the radar uses ADS-B data, an aircraft’s position updates in real time, often faster than the airport’s own displays.

The boards update continuously from live flight data. They are an aid, not a replacement for the airport’s official announcements.

Track a specific flight at LAX

The quickest way is the flight number: enter it in the radar search, for example DL2483 or UA1141, and follow the aircraft on the map until it lands. You can also zoom in over Southern California and click any aircraft on approach over the ocean or the city to see its origin, altitude and estimated arrival time.
