Default Is there nowhere online to lookup an edct?

fly.faa.gov no longer shows edct times for over a year now. Now a days, with airlines not posting delays until 45 minutes before a flight leaves, in the off chance ATC lightens the edct time, it looks as if all the airlines may have asked the FAA website to take their edct times down.

Definitely adds on to a very stressful day of commuting....

I ALWAYS get:

"No EDCT information is available for the values you entered. Please check your input and try again."

Definitely doesn't work for Alaska flights, at least not that I've been able to figure out. I agree, it's frustrating.

Thanks man. Now that we've posted the same link in here 3 times, maybe edct times will start appearing like when you say "Beetlejuice" 3 times.

Also, AAL nor UAL flights work.

It's the same reason the notam system is broke. The FAA has no incentive or plans to change the status quo.

Are you certain that you’re being given an EDCT and not some other form of traffic management initiative? Most of the TMI’s on www.fly.faa.gov/ois are NOT EDCT producing TMI’s.

The FAA site has never worked for me either. My airline uses SABRE and I can find online EDCTs there. Not sure about offline, but Flightaware generally has been fairly accurate.
