Status depends on when you fly
An area that is quiet this morning can be active this afternoon, or next Saturday. With Plan Ahead, the map and your briefing hold airspace and NOTAM data for every day up to 45 days ahead, so the colours answer the question for your flight, not for the moment you opened the map.
Presets or your own window
The Activity range is the UTC time window the map shows status for. Pick a preset or set your own From and To times. The map, the airspace details, the airport NOTAM badges and the briefing follow the same window.
Allocations from the AUP appear once it is published, usually the day before. UUP updates follow during the day. Further ahead, the status comes from NOTAMs and published schedules.
- Until midnight UTC: from now to the end of the UTC day
- Until SS+15: from now until 15 minutes after sunset at your position
- Tomorrow and Weekend: the whole UTC days
The activation calendar
Open an airspace to see its activation calendar: day by day, with one row for each source (AIP, AUP and NOTAM). Pick a day to see the sources behind it. A NOTAM with a schedule shows its coming week the same way.
