We live in a fast paced, 24 hour a day world. There are so many demands on our time. In some ways technology is responsible for this new lifestyle. In years past, we were tied to our homes and workplaces. If we needed to be reached, it was by landline telephone or by regular postal mail. Things were slower in some respects and that wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

But technology has changed dramatically. We rely on laptops to stay in contact and we can take them everywhere. We are no longer tied to our desks. And almost everyone has a cell phone now. That cell phone allows us to communicate instantly with anyone we want to, day or night. Most cell phones are smartphones that greatly enhance our productivity. A smartphone is almost like a computer in the palms of our hands.

So by now you are thinking, what does all of this talk about technology have to do with me tracking the status of my Delta flight? Technology has everything to do with it. That technology in your briefcase, on your hip or in your hand can give you all of the flight tracking information that you could ever want. You just have to know how to harness the power of your laptop or smartphone. I can show you some quick and easy ways to track the status of your Delta flight with the technology that you already have.

The first way to track your flight’s status is to go to your airline’s website. If you or the person you are concerned about is flying on Delta Airlines, then you want to go to Delta.com. Delta.com has a flight tracker built into their website. From this tracker you can enter the flight number to get instant status on the flight. If you don’t know the flight number, you can enter the city the flight originated from and the city that the flight will land in and the tracker will do the rest of the work for you. It will display all of the information about the flight in question.

The second way to track your specific Delta flight is to use one of the numerous flight tracking websites. In the past few years, numerous sites like Flightview.com and Businesstravellogue.com have started up. These sites give the average traveler access to the same flight information that the airlines themselves have. These sites even have maps that will track your flight in the air and plot its progress on a map in real time.

The first two ways to track the status of your Delta flight from any computer or smartphone. For those of you that use Apple products, Delta Airlines has a special app just for you. The Fly Delta app for iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches can keep you up to date with everything related to Delta Airlines. The Fly Delta app can give you the status of any Delta flight. It can also map out the flight path of any Delta flight. If you are a frequent Delta Airlines flier, an app like this is a must for you.

You have the access to Delta Airlines flight tracking right now. You just didn’t know it before you read this article. Now you know.
