Hi folks,

I find it very usefull that there is a validation that the departure time is checked against the minimum period a flightplan shall be files in advance. But I think this validation shall be able to be overwritten. There are case either ATC does not stick to the minimum advance period or even requests a flightplan with a departure time of let‘s say 10 minutes from now.
In the very same context it should also be possible to amend the departure time not only to a delay but also to an earlier departure time.

These two suggestion are based on the needs of a today‘s flight from Innsbruck to Venice and back (btw: very nice trip).

What do you think?

We cannot commit to any particular length of time for any particular country because this can change for operational reasons at any time. However in general, we let you file as long as it's at least 5 minutes before departure.

I recall that in Germany they are very strict about flights leaving there, and we do enforce 1 hour in advance.
