What is the daily flight game?
A free daily puzzle where you guess the mystery flight route from real airline clues. Every day at 5 AM Eastern a new puzzle drops at easy, medium, and hard difficulty. You have five guesses to identify the departure and destination airports.
The game is called SkyQ if you want the short name. No sign-up. Plays on phone or desktop in under two minutes. Built for aviation fans, frequent flyers, and anyone who likes a tight daily ritual.
How to play
- Pick a difficulty. Easy pulls from the 50 busiest routes. Medium adds 500 more. Hard uses the entire daily schedule.
- Guess any airport. Type a city, country, IATA, or ICAO code. Autocomplete handles common spellings.
- Read the clue. Each wrong guess unlocks one more: duration, aircraft, direction, domestic vs international, then the airline.
- Solve in 5. Lock in both the origin and the destination before your guesses run out.
- Come back tomorrow. New puzzles at 5 AM Eastern. Streaks, stats, and copy-paste emoji results.
