By the end of this guide, you will have connected PlaneConnection to ForeFlight Dispatch, configured bidirectional trip sync, and verified the connection.
This feature requires administrator or workspace owner permissions. Changes made here affect all users in your workspace.
You need the Admin role and an active ForeFlight Dispatch subscription. ForeFlight Business Performance or higher plan is required for dispatch API access.

​
Prerequisites

  • An active ForeFlight Dispatch account with API access enabled.
  • Admin role in PlaneConnection.
  • ForeFlight Dispatch API credentials (provided by ForeFlight support).

​
What syncs between PlaneConnection and ForeFlight

​
Connect ForeFlight

After connecting ForeFlight, any new trip created in PlaneConnection automatically appears in ForeFlight Dispatch within minutes. Crew members using ForeFlight on their iPads see the trip in their schedule without manual entry.

​
Verify the sync

After connecting:
  1. Create a test trip in PlaneConnection with a departure within the next 24 hours.
  2. Open ForeFlight Dispatch and verify the trip appears with correct route, aircraft, and crew data.
  3. File a flight plan in ForeFlight and verify the filed plan data syncs back to the trip in PlaneConnection.

​
Disconnect ForeFlight

  1. Navigate to Ops > Settings > Integrations > Flight Planning.
  2. Click Disconnect on the ForeFlight card.
  3. Confirm the disconnection.
Disconnecting stops all data synchronization. Previously synced trips remain in both systems.
