How do I know how long was Air Namibia flight delayed?

Air Namibia delayed flight 3 hours

  1. Contact a Lexority lawyer to tell you how long the Air Namibia flight delay was without a doubt. You have to be aware that the following sites are not always accurate and need a payment record.
  2. You can use the web Flight Stats where if you register you can see the Air Namibia status of all flights including those of years ago.
  3. Another way is to go to Flight Radar where you can see the last seven days Air Namibia flight delays without registering. If you register you can also see delayed flights from up to two years ago.

Must read: When the Air Namibia delay is very close to 3 hours, Flightradar24 is not 100% reliable, since it shows the time of landing, but not the exit from the plane, which is what the law says has to be taken in consideration.
