Atlas Air Flight Status

About Atlas Air

Atlas Air is an airline based in United States, listed under the ICAO code GTI and the IATA code 5Y; air traffic control addresses its flights by the callsign "Giant". On this page you can follow Atlas Air flights and find the airports it serves.

How to read a Atlas Air flight number

Every Atlas Air flight number starts with 5Y, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix GTI, and controllers address it as "Giant". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Atlas Air and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.

Frequently asked questions about Atlas Air

Where is my Atlas Air flight right now?

Search the flight number (5Y plus digits) in the search box on this page. If the aircraft is airborne within receiver coverage, you will see its live status; before departure you will see the route.

Is my Atlas Air flight delayed or cancelled?

Check the flight number on this page for live status, but for rebooking, gate changes and cancellations the airline itself remains the authoritative source.

What do 5Y and GTI mean on Atlas Air flights?

They are two prefixes for the same airline. 5Y is the IATA code you see on tickets; GTI is the ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control.

Does Atlas Air operate flights for other airlines?

Codeshare agreements mean a flight sold under another carrier's number may be operated by Atlas Air, and the reverse. Live tracking always follows the operating carrier's flight number; check the "operated by" line on your booking.
