Starting Thursday 29 October flight alert notifications stopped working. Have not received a notification since.
Any answer?

cabman767,

Sorry, using the information you provided I'm not seeing any problems with Flight Alerts. I just received a departure alert message for a Southwest flight.

Regards,

I never received that message. I'll recheck my settings.

cabman767,

Your first post indicated that the entire Flight Alert system offered by our website was not working, but I could not verify that. Were you referring to the entirety of Flight Alerts? Or (as I now suspect) was your post about some specific flight(s)? If it was about a specific flight then try looking at the flight using our 'Flight Status by Flight' tool located here...

You not receiving an alert may be simply because we did not receive any data for your flight to alert on.

Originally all flight alerts stopped working.
First thing in the morning I enter all flight alerts for the day.
For some reason I didn't receive any flight alerts last week after Wednesday.
Checking further, I seem to have a GMail problem, I forward all flight alerts through dfwexecutivetransportation.com, which is with earthlink and then to GMail. I received all the mail for those days but for some reason not the flight alerts.
Has anyone else had a problem with GMail that you know of?

Problem solved.
For some reason GMail started marking flightstats messenger as spam. Idiots!
All fixed.

Thanks.
