By knowing the approximate departure\/arrival time and the departure or arrival airport you can select the fight you&#8217;re after from live departure or arrival boards. Please note you can search for an airport via Plane Finder\u2019s smart search bar.<\/p>\n<p>Once finding and selecting either airport, Plane Finder will display the live departure and arrival boards. From here, you can then click on the Thomson flight you wish to track manually from its approximate arrival or departure time.
