Can you promote here?
The written rules take no clear position, which is NOT permission: unclear communities enforce norms through removals instead of rulebooks. Sort by top, study which builder posts survived and how they were framed, and when in doubt ask the mods.
From the rules · Include flight IDs/timestamps and a FR24 link—these are commonly expected.
Links
No explicit link policy. Default to no URL: link-plus-young-account is one of the most common automated removal patterns on Reddit.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, news, discussion
Headline: short, descriptive, often starts with the aircraft/flight or location (include flight ID when possible). Write in first person for sightings or third person for news. Body: 1–3 short paragraphs; include time/ID and a FR24 link or screenshot. Tone: casual, curious, occasionally alarmed for incidents. Upvotes go to rare/visual flight tracks, safety news, and unique sightings; avoid unsupported panic/speculation.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/flightradar24's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
