The war that officially started between Russia and Ukraine has led us to live an extraordinary day today. Today, anything can happen at any time and everyone is trying to gain knowledge as much as they can. It is not known what will happen in the rest of the day, but internet users who wonder how the air traffic is, have crashed Flightradar24, one of the most popular services in this sector. The website, which allows instant tracking of flights, has been out of service for hours.
Flightradar24 is one of the most popular flight tracking platforms in the world. Passenger planes, some military planes and helicopters can be tracked on this website. However, the intensity that started in the morning led to the collapse of the site. Users could not access Flightradar24 for hours. The system is still not actively used.
“We are working to return to normal”
Posting an announcement on its social media accounts in the morning, Flightradar24 said that the cause of the crash was excessive density. Continuing to inform during the day, the team stated that they are trying to return to normal in their last statement.
Flightradar24 was not working at all in the morning hours. But now, that situation has changed. If you want to enter Flightradar24, you will be queued after you reach the site. During the checks we made as Webtekno, we saw that we had to wait for 27 minutes to enter the site. For now, we do not know whether we will be able to follow the flights after the specified period.
