Finding an old flight number

Finding an old flight number - Black Rotary Phone

How can I find an old flight number from over three years ago? I am trying to make a claim for a delay of over five hours. They sent us to the wrong destination and lost our luggage.



Best Answer

Depending on the airline, you might be able to look up information at FlighStats.com, though data older than a few days requires that you create a (free) account. FlightAware and FlightWise may also be of interest, though these require a paid account for historical data.
