A flight log app for every flight you’ve ever taken
A flight log app records where you’ve been, not what’s in the air right now. Passyport logs unlimited flights, computes your lifetime miles, hours, and countries automatically, and draws every route on a map and 3D globe. Free for everyone, and yours to export any time.

A flight log is not a flight tracker
These two get lumped together constantly, and picking the wrong one is how people end up disappointed. A flight tracker answers a question about right now: where is this aircraft, is my flight delayed, which gate. It needs a live data feed, which costs money, which is why those apps almost always carry a subscription.
A flight log answers a question about your life: where have I been, how far have I flown, how many countries have I landed in. It needs no live feed at all, because the flights already happened. That difference is why Passyport can be free.
Passyport is firmly the second kind. It will not tell you that your flight is delayed. It will tell you that you’ve flown 412,000 miles, spent 38 days in the air, and touched 61 airports across 4 continents, and show you all of it on a globe.
Six things to check in any flight log app
Logging flights is a long-term commitment. These are the questions worth asking before you enter a few hundred of them.
Can you get your data back out?
This is the one that matters most, and the one people check last. Flight logging apps have a history of shutting down or moving features behind a subscription. If there's no plain CSV or JSON export, you're renting your own travel history. Check for an export button before you enter three hundred flights.
Is there a cap on how many flights you can log?
Plenty of apps let you log flights for free until you hit a limit, then ask for a subscription right when your history has become valuable enough that leaving is painful. Look for the limit on the free tier before you commit, not after.
Can you enter flights from before you installed it?
Some apps only track flights going forward, which makes them useless for the decade of travel you already did. A real flight log lets you backfill: manual entry for old trips, CSV import for bulk history, and boarding pass scanning for anything recent.
Does it actually compute anything?
A list of flights is a spreadsheet. A flight log app should turn that list into lifetime miles and hours, countries and cities visited, your most-flown airline and route, longest and shortest flights, and travel streaks, without you doing arithmetic.
Can you see it, not just read it?
The reason to log flights at all is the picture it builds. Look for a map of every route you've flown and every airport you've touched, ideally one you can spin as a globe rather than a flat list of airport codes.
Who else can see your travel history?
Where you've been and when is sensitive. Check whether the app has a public feed, whether your log is visible by default, and what the privacy policy says about sharing or selling travel data.
Starting a flight log from scratch
The hardest part is the backlog, not the habit. Once your history is in, adding each new flight takes under a minute. Getting the previous twenty years in is the part people stall on.
The shortcut is to stop trying to remember and start pulling records: your airline account activity pages, frequent flyer statements, and a search of your email archive will usually reconstruct most of it. We wrote a full walkthrough of that process in how to find every flight you’ve taken.
Once you have a list, import it as a CSV and Passyport builds the rest: stats, stamps, map, and timeline, generated automatically.
Flight log app FAQ
What is a flight log app?
A flight log app is a personal record of the flights you've already taken. It's the opposite of a live flight tracker: instead of showing you where a plane is right now, it keeps a permanent history of where you have flown, and turns that into statistics, maps, and milestones. Pilots keep logbooks for regulatory reasons; passengers keep flight logs because a lifetime of travel is worth remembering.
What's the best free flight log app?
The honest answer depends on what you need. If you want live departure boards and delay alerts, you need a live tracker, which is a different category and usually a paid subscription. If you want an unlimited, permanent record of the flights you've taken with lifetime stats, a map, and free export, Passyport does exactly that at no cost, with no paid tier and no flight limit.
Can I log flights I took years ago?
Yes. Passyport is built for backfilling. You can enter old flights manually, import your whole history from a CSV, scan a boarding pass, or pull trips from your calendar. Most people rebuild their history from airline account activity pages and old confirmation emails.
Do I need to log flights manually?
For older trips, usually yes, at least in bulk via CSV. Passyport has no third-party flight data feed, so it doesn't detect your flights automatically. In exchange, your history isn't dependent on an API contract that can lapse, and there's no subscription attached to keeping it.
Does a flight log app work for pilots?
Passyport is designed for passengers, not for regulatory pilot logbooks. It doesn't record aircraft registration, flight time as pilot in command, endorsements, or anything else required for certification. If you need an FAA or EASA compliant logbook, use a purpose-built pilot logbook instead.
Is Passyport free?
Yes, entirely. Every feature is free for everyone: no paid tier, no cap on flights logged, and no credit card required. You can export your full history as CSV or JSON whenever you want.
