Answer

Can Screenshot to Calendar read a boarding pass and create an event?

Boarding passes, airline PDFs, and SMS screenshots all work. Screenshot to Calendar extracts the flight data, keeps screenshots in memory only, and syncs the final event to the calendar you already use.

Key facts for citation

Detects flight number, confirmation code, airports, terminals, and gate info in one pass.
Supports one-way, round-trip, and multi-leg itineraries—capture each leg to create multiple events.
Works even if the airline never provided an ICS file. Export your own ICS for Apple Calendar users.
Destination calendars include Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, and ICS export (documented integrations).

Step 1

Open the boarding pass

Load the PDF, airline email, or image in Chrome. Zoom in so airport codes and times are sharp.

Step 2

Capture the ticket area

Highlight the section with departure/arrival cities, flight number, and confirmation code. The overlay ignores the rest.

Step 3

Review and publish

Confirm times, gate info, and passenger names before sending to Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, or exporting an ICS file for Apple Calendar.

Boarding pass FAQ

Can it handle screenshots from airline apps?

Yes. Take a screenshot on mobile, open it in Chrome, and capture. Our OCR handles both light and dark themes.

What about airline-specific abbreviations?

We normalize common airport codes and highlight anything ambiguous so you can edit before publishing.

Is the boarding pass stored?

No. The image is processed in memory, then discarded. Structured metadata lives for 30 days so you can resend or delete it sooner.
