Garmin begins seamless integration between FltPlan.com and Garmin Pilot

OLATHE, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Garmin International, Inc., a unit of #garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN), today announced the initial phase of integration between the #garmin Pilot™ app and the popular #FltPlan.com web portal. As a result of Garmin’s acquisition of #FltPlan.com in August, both companies have made rapid progress in merging portfolios. Beginning next week, pilots will be able to use #FltPlan.com for pre-flight planning and filing, and automatically view the same flight plan within the Garmin Pilot app on Apple mobile devices. This announcement represents the first of a series of cohesive enhancements between the #FltPlan.com website and the #garmin product line.

“We are proud to show early progress and eager to launch this integration between #FltPlan.com and #garminpilot,” said Carl Wolf, vice president of aviation marketing and sales. “This announcement symbolizes the beginning of a much anticipated collaboration that merges the most widely-used flight planning and filing tool, with an industry-leading app. With this, we are thrilled to welcome #FltPlan.com to the #garmin family and we look forward to growing our collective portfolios to provide our customers with an unrivaled suite of flight planning tools and services.”

FltPlan.com and #garminpilot customers can now experience a seamless transition between the #FltPlan.com website and the #garminpilot application within the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America, Venezuela and Columbia. The initial phase of this integration allows customers to create a flight plan on the #FltPlan.com website and automatically view the same flight plan information within the Trip Planning section of the #garminpilot app.

Within the app, customers can also view recent and future trips that have been created on the website. Once the flight plan populates in the app, pilots can transfer it wirelessly to compatible #garmin avionics or a #garmin integrated flight deck. Additionally, the popular navigation log found on the #FltPlan.com website can also be viewed within #garminpilot under the NavLog tab in Trip Planning.

Pilots can create a free #FltPlan.com account to take advantage of web-based flight planning and flight management services, which includes access to weather, airport information, fuel prices, printable navigation logs, aircraft performance data and more. By using #FltPlan.com and #garminpilot, pilots can easily transition from web-based planning, to the #garminpilot app and wirelessly transfer the data to compatible #garmin products, saving valuable time prior to any flight.

The latest release of the #garminpilot app that incorporates #FltPlan.com integration on Apple mobile devices will be available next week during the NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition, October 16-18, 2018 in Orlando, Florida. For new customers, #garminpilot is available from the Apple App Store as a free download for the first 30 days.
