AI-Powered Flight Briefing
📊 6,500 data points analyzed HIGH Confidence
Your Flight

We analysed more than 6,500 data points along your route from Athens International Airport "Eleftherios Venizelos", Spata-Artemida to Abu Dhabi International, Abu Dhabi.

Your Journey Beta

Your route takes you crossing the Aegean Sea, crossing the Mediterranean Sea, across the Syrian Desert, and crossing the Persian Gulf – these areas can sometimes cause turbulence.

Smooth Flight

We're expecting smooth conditions throughout your flight. You can sit back and relax.

Takeoff

Takeoff should feel smooth with possible light bumps, with calm conditions around the airport.

Winds Aloft

Winds at cruising altitude are about 94 knots. These winds are favorable and may get you there up to 39 minutes early.

Landing

Landing should feel smooth with possible light bumps with typical approach conditions.

You're in Safe Hands

If you feel nervous at any point, remember that turbulence is expected, safe, and part of normal flying. The crew is monitoring everything, and the aircraft is built to handle far more than anything you will feel. Have a safe and calm flight.

☀️ Morning Flight

Morning flights typically experience smoother conditions as the atmosphere is more stable and thermal turbulence hasn't yet developed.

Narrow-Body Aircraft (Medium)

Single-aisle mainline jets like this offer a comfortable ride. While you may feel turbulence more than on wide-body aircraft, they are engineered to handle it smoothly.
