haileesteinfeld, could you provide the full list you used?
By Free Map Tools on 19th July 2023

Hi! i had a pretty long list of routes (BLV-ATL, BLV-NUE, etc) and its only plotting the first route ;-;
By haileesteinfeld on 18th July 2023

Malbuff, please try again. That shouldn't have been happening. An issue elsewhere seems to have this knock on effect.
By Free Map Tools on 27th March 2023

Can you PLEASE let me turn off all the other airport markers when I plot a single route? Terrible distraction.

Measure in nautical miles. (It's aviation…)

Tried to plot SeaTac to Doha but I got nothing.

CaptnOgre, your suggestion has been implemented.
By Free Map Tools on 6th July 2022

Good tool, it was nice to plot multiple legs, one at the time, but then the air routes keep the previous, so it is nice to visualize. I would suggest to have the tool allow the user to move the labels for better readability and so they don't overlap with the route itself

Hi again. I checked the tinyurl feature and it works. Thx. One issue though... I erased one of the legs of the trip because I'd made a mistake and then when done with all the legs, I saved it. When I loaded it in a new browser (incognito) it showed the route including the deleted leg. Hope it helps. :D
By CaptnOgre on 14th May 2021

Thx for the fix. Will try it later and report back any issues. :D
By CaptnOgre on 14th May 2021

CaptnOgre, thanks for explaining. We found an issue with it and fixed it.
By Free Map Tools on 14th May 2021

About the tinyurl. When you save a route on the user menu, there is a link option, when I clicked it a small popup comes up with a tinyurl. Upon pasting that link on a browser and hitting enter, the url transforms into an hmtl line with tags and such and the browser page is completely blank, not even an error message. I'll be happy to keep reporting if it helps. :D

Great about the multiple stops. It would be very useful.
By CaptnOgre on 14th May 2021

CaptnOgre, inputing and plotting a route with multiple stops sounds like a feasible idea. We will add this to our to-do list.
By Free Map Tools on 13th May 2021

Not sure what you mean by tinyurl? That option isn't on this page
By Free Map Tools on 13th May 2021

It would be great if we could input the full route with ICAO or iata codes in a certain format or drop downs and have it plot all legs. Ex: MMMX-SEQU-SPIM-SKBO-KOPF
