Noticed BWI’s new flight maps?
April 23, 2008
I visited Baltimore Washington International Airport on Wednesday, and got a chance to check out a new feature that the airport just added. BWI has installed several monitors that map where arriving and departing flights are, and what the weather is like around the country—perhaps where you are getting ready to go.
This could be a cool way to pass the time as you wait to pick someone up or for your flight to take off. You can actually see how far away a plane is on a map of the eastern United States to verify those estimated delays.
Has anyone seen these yet? Apparently they’ve only been around for a week or so. They’re attached to the monitors where you can look up your flight status.

I saw the screens late March/early April, when I waited to pick up my wife at the D concourse. I found the additional information useful, though it was a bit unnerving to see her plane among all those converging into the same small space!
