SPAR19 was the most tracked flight on Flightradar24 among active flights from the moment it took off from Kuala Lumpur at 15:42 local time. SPAR19 had been tracked by more than 708,000 individuals around the world by the time it landed in Taipei, making it the most tracked live flight in Flightradar24 history.

According to media sources, Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, was on board the flight to Taiwan. Following video from Reuters in Taipei confirmed that Pelosi was onboard the plane. More than 200,000 people followed the plane as it flew through Indonesia, and the number grew as the plane approached Taiwan. When the plane touched down in Taipei, 708,000 people were watching it.

An extraordinary level of continuous interest in this particular flight put an enormous strain on Flightradar24’s infrastructure. Our employees immediately began working to keep our services stable. Unfortunately, due to the high volume of users, we had to implement our waiting room service, which limits non-subscribers’ access to Flightradar24. Normal access for all users was promptly restored shortly after SPAR19 arrived. We are constantly improving our processes in order to provide more capacity for high-interest trips.
