## Verified facts

Checked against FlightAware's own documentation on 2026-08-20. Fields absent below are ones FlightAware does not document, not ones we assumed.

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Has a password | No, signs in with a one-time code |

## Steps

1. **There is no password to reset.** FlightAware signs you in with a one-time code sent to the email address or phone number on the account.
2. **Request the code** on the sign-in screen and enter it. Never read a sign-in code aloud to anyone: FlightAware will not ask for it.
3. **Secure the inbox instead.** Whoever controls the email account that receives the code controls this account, so that is where a strong unique password and two-factor authentication belong.

## Common problems

- **No traditional password reset, email verification code required.** As of October 22, 2024, FlightAware no longer uses passwords. Login requires entering your email and receiving a 6-digit verification code sent to that email address. (https://support.flightaware.com/hc/en-us/articles/32346479158551-How-Do-I-Reset-My-Password)
- **MFA is optional but separate from email verification.** The required 6-digit email verification code is distinct from optional Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) via authenticator app, which provides an additional security layer.

## Doing it automatically

Repass cannot reset this one, because there is no password on it. What it can do is reset every other account behind the email address that receives your FlightAware sign-in codes, which is what actually guards this account.
