[Jacob] Since my last video on Flighty they’ve added a brand new feature called flighty friends which makes everything so much easier if you want to share your travel plans with friends or family.

[Jacob] But to demo it is tricky because I need a friend who’s waiting on a plane, maybe at an airport…

[Sabe] Oh, hi Jacob!

[Jacob] Oh hey, what are the odds?!

[Sabe] I’m at the airport now so I just thought I’d flick you my flight details so you can see when I’ve landed safely.

[Jacob] Thank you, that would be great.

[Jacob] I know I could just copy and paste the boarding code and add it to the friend’s flight section, but nowadays with this new feature it seems worth exploring.

[Jacob] How do we get started?

[Sabe] I’ve got my flight loaded into the Flighty app and if I tap here I can see my Flighty Friends account.

[Sabe] I just need a name and profile picture to get started.

[Jacob] Is there a way of making sure it only shares with certain people – perhaps people that you can add?

[Sabe] Yeah, this is only shared with the people that I choose.

[Sabe] Speaking of which, now all I need to do is add you as a friend.

[Jacob Oh, sweet! Look at that, I’ve got a message inviting me to join you on Flighty.

[Jacob] If I tap on here it’s opening the Flighty app straight away and now I can see Sabe you’re there as a friend.

[Sabe] Now our accounts are linked you should be able to see my flight, isn’t there right Jacob?

[Jacob] Ah look at that!

[Jacob] If I go from My Flights to Friends Flights, Sabe I can see your fight is there automatically!

[Jacob] I’ve not got to type anything in, it’s just there ready for me.

[Sabe] Fab! Now look mate I gotta run – it’s time for me to check in. See you later!

[Jacob] No worries mate, thanks for your help and safe travels!

[Jacob] And of course now on Flighty, because Sabe is my Flighty Friend, I can track his flight, get notifications, Live Activities – all that good stuff.

[Jacob] And I can choose as well if I want to have notifications on for just this flight of his, or all of his flights in the future, and I can change that really simply by going to Flighty Friends, choosing Sabe and then having a look at the options down on that page.

[Jacob] This is a really clever new feature that basically acts as like a mini social network – a mini Find My perhaps – but for people who fly often.

[Jacob] It means it’s super easy to keep track of what they’re doing and get notifications.

[Jacob] Sabe, thank you so much for joining me on this QuickTip and good luck on your travels!
