FlightStats.com is the best flight status service, WSJ reports. In a test of several different sites and services, WSJ gave "excellent" marks to FlightStats for giving out lots of different updates and for telling when flights actually arrive and depart. Sites FlightView, FlyteComm, FlightArrivals, FlightAware, and FlightExplorer all missed crucial pieces of information in the test, while the airline's services often gave too few updates (though Delta was rated "very good.") If you, understandably, don't trust the airline and need to know where an airplane really is, advertising-supported FlightStats.com is the place to go.
