Is there any website or app to lookup flight paths?
Is there any website or mobile phone app that allows me to look up the flight path, given a specific flight number? (I'm thinking 'SeatGuru for flight paths' here.)
PS - I do know flight paths can change due to weather and traffic conditions. I wanted a site which either shows live/time-delayed actual data, or comes 'close-enough' showing flight path information that is fed to in-flight entertainment systems.

You can check FlightAware, which gives you a map of the projected path but also the markers that flight is supposed to hit enroute. Unlike most other websites it also works for most flights not heading to or coming from the United States.
P.S. One thing to be aware of - flight paths may actually change day-to-day for the same flight number.

FlightAware and Flightradar24 let users enter an airline flight number and then see the path of the latest trip. Both have flight histories available, so you can check the path over several days.How do I find flight paths around my house?
Flightradar24 is a live plane tracking app. You can follow air traffic from any location in the world. Which means you can open the app and see a live view of all the planes flying over your house. Or if you're vacationing in Costa Rica, find out what plane is flying above you on the beach.Are flight Paths public?
As a result, flight data collected by the FAA in its air traffic control system \u2013 except for military and sensitive government flights \u2013 is public information. Web sites such as FlightAware post the data online, allowing anyone to observe the system and follow most planes virtually in real time.What app tells you where planes are going?
Flightradar24 has a rapidly growing network of 20,000 ground stations around the world to receive this data that then shows up as aircraft moving on a map in the app.How to Track Flight Paths in Google Earth : Google \u0026 Internet Browsers
