Travel: Quickly Track Flights with Google Search and Earth Integration

Tracking a flight in your browser or in Google Earth has never been easier, thanks to Google's integrated search results for flight information. Just enter the flight number of a flight in progress (like AA 34) into your Google search box. Google recognizes the flight name and provides links to track the status of the flight at Travelocity, Expedia or at previously mentioned FBOWeb. If you choose FBOWeb, you'll get a few cool stats for the flight, like ground speed, altitude, ETA, and the Google Map location. You can take tracking to the next level by clicking the Google Earth link to download a KML file to track the rest of the flight in close to real time with Google Earth. We've this kind of flight tracking, but Google's integration with flight numbers and FBOWeb has really streamlined the process.
