777 tracker: every Boeing 777 flying right now
The Boeing 777 is the largest twin-engine airliner in service and a backbone of long-haul flying, both as a passenger jet and as one of the most common long-haul freighters. This tracker shows every 777 broadcasting right now, split by version and airline, including any 777-9 test flights.

Built with its airlines
Boeing designed the 777 in the early 1990s with a group of airline customers, including United, All Nippon Airways, British Airways, Cathay Pacific and Japan Airlines, taking part in design decisions. It was the first airliner designed entirely on computer and the first to enter service already approved to fly 180 minutes from the nearest diversion airport on two engines. That approval is what let twins take over most long-haul routes from three- and four-engine jets like the 747 and MD-11.
The 777-300ER and the Freighter
The 777-300ER, which entered service with Air France in 2004, became the defining long-haul jet of its generation, and Emirates built much of its network around it. The 777 Freighter shares its code, B77L, with the long-range 777-200LR and is one of the most common long-haul cargo jets, flown by FedEx, Qatar Airways Cargo, Lufthansa Cargo and many others. Look for freight callsigns in the list.
777-9 test flights
The next generation, the 777X, adds a new carbon-fiber wing with folding tips so it fits standard airport gates, and GE9X engines, the largest jet engines ever built. Certification has taken far longer than planned, and first deliveries have slipped to 2027, about seven years late. Until then, any 777-9 (code B779) on this map is a Boeing test or production flight, usually around Seattle. The 777-9 guide covers the airplane.
Questions
What is the difference between the 777-200 and the 777-300ER?
The 777-300ER is about 10 meters (33 ft) longer than the 777-200ER, carries more passengers and has more powerful GE90-115B engines, which let it fly slightly farther. Airlines use it on their busiest long-haul routes.
When will the 777X enter service?
Boeing expects to deliver the first 777-9 in 2027, about seven years later than first planned, after certification took longer than expected. Lufthansa and Emirates are among the first customers.
How many 777s are flying right now?
The number at the top of the page is a live count of every 777 an ADS-B receiver can hear, passenger jets and freighters together, refreshed every 30 seconds.
Why isn't an aircraft I know is flying on the map?
Positions come from volunteer ADS-B receivers, which only hear aircraft within roughly 200 nautical miles. Over oceans, deserts and parts of Africa and Asia there are few receivers, so an aircraft can vanish mid-flight and reappear near land. Military and some government aircraft also switch their transponders' public data off.
