FlightGlobal has a picture library of over 1 million images, starting with the foundation of Flight in 1909. Thousands of images and back copies of Flight were searchable online but from June 2020 they are only available with a paid subscription to Flight Global Premium.
FlightGlobal won the prize for "Business Website of the Year" at the Association of Online Publishers' Digital Publishing Awards 2010. According to the contest judges, "The site uses the full spectrum of digital tools, with a special focus on engagement and effective use of social media in a B2B [business-to-business] environment".
In August 2019, FlightGlobal and its associated divisions (except analytics and consulting divisions, which were retained by RELX as Cirium) were sold to DVV Media Group.
