How to play

Five guesses, five clues. The closer to one guess, the better.

The flow

  1. 01
    Each day brings three flights
    Easy, medium, and hard. Each is a real route flown by a real airline.
  2. 02
    You have 5 guesses
    Pick an origin and destination. Both must match for a win.
  3. 03
    Wrong guess unlocks a clue
    Duration first, then aircraft, scope, direction, airline.
  4. 04
    Solve to keep your streak
    Solve at least one difficulty per day. Skip a day, lose your streak.

The clues, in order

  1. 01Duration

    Flight time rounded to the nearest 15 minutes. Tells you whether you're looking at a quick hop or a long-haul.

  2. 02Aircraft

    Type family — "Airbus A320" or "Boeing 737". Helps narrow range.

  3. 03Scope

    Domestic or international. Especially helpful in Nordic countries.

  4. 04Direction

    Cardinal heading from origin (N/NE/E/SE/S/SW/W/NW).

  5. 05Airline

    The operating carrier. The biggest clue — saved for last.

FAQ

Where do the routes come from?

Real flights observed via Flightradar24 over the past 30 days, plus a hand-curated baseline so the game works on day one.

Why are puzzles the same every day?

Selection is deterministic from the date so everyone plays the same flight on a given day. New ones drop at 00:00 UTC.

Can I play without an account?

Yes — anonymous play is the default. Sign in only if you want streak sync across devices and friends.

How do streaks work?

Solve at least one difficulty per day. Miss a day and your streak resets. The game tracks total solves across all difficulties.
