Boarding Pass Scanner

Getting a flight into your TrackMyWings watchlist should take seconds, not minutes. The Boarding Pass Scanner makes it effortless: point your camera at any boarding pass — paper or digital — and TrackMyWings instantly reads the flight details and adds it to your watchlist, fully tracked with all alerts enabled.

We decode standard BCBP (Bar Coded Boarding Pass) formats used by virtually every airline in the world. Whether you're scanning an IndiGo e-boarding pass on your phone screen, an Air India paper boarding pass, or a QR code from a third-party booking platform, the scanner extracts the flight number, route, seat number, and departure date in under a second.

Once scanned, the flight is added to your watchlist with a single tap confirmation. All your notification preferences apply automatically — gate change alerts, delay notifications, boarding reminders, and landing confirmation. You don't need to manually type anything or remember your flight number.

For frequent flyers who receive boarding passes via email, we also support boarding pass imports from your camera roll. Screenshot your e-boarding pass and share it to TrackMyWings, or import it from your photos. The BCBP decoder works on images as well as live camera input.

The Boarding Pass Scanner is part of our philosophy that flight tracking should require zero effort from the traveler. The fewer steps between 'I have a flight' and 'my flight is fully tracked with all alerts active,' the better. Scanning is faster than typing, and removes the risk of transposing a digit in a flight number.

This feature is available on the free plan. We want every traveler who has a boarding pass in hand to be able to track their flight instantly, regardless of subscription tier.
