Import flights without rebuilding your history

Changing apps should not mean retyping hundreds of legs. YourFlights treats import as a first-class workflow: upload a CSV flight import file, validate rows, and land flights in the same logbook that powers statistics and the globe. Data ownership stays with you—export anytime.

Whether you are leaving a spreadsheet, moving off OpenFlights, or consolidating tools after a phone upgrade, import gets you to insights faster.

Successful migrations are boring—in a good way. Export from your old system, note the export date, and import into a test batch if you are nervous. Scan the issue list for unknown airports or odd dates, fix the source file or adjust rows, then confirm. Once flights are in, open travel statistics and the route globe to sanity-check totals against what you remember.

Cleanup pages in the app help remove duplicates or correct systematic mistakes—useful when merging a partial manual log with a full CSV dump.

Your flight history is personal data. YourFlights does not hold it hostage: export in standard formats, keep local backups, and import again if you experiment elsewhere. Portability encourages honest logging—you are more likely to maintain a logbook when you know it can move with you.

Import is a milestone, not the end. Add new trips via boarding pass scan, manual entry, or future exports from other tools. Each new flight enriches the same analytics pipeline—airline statistics, distance totals, and globe routes—without another migration project.
