Continuing a flight / next leg with ATC?

[N316TS]

Hi there,
Thanks for searching for the best place to post this! We have a Community Support category where people can ask questions about specific functionality.

I assume your question is about IFR, right? If it’s VFR, ATC doesn’t know where you’re going even if you use the flight planner.

There is, by the way, a Wishlist topic about using the MSFS flight planner without having to exit your flight and come back in:

Access to flight planner without leaving current flight

It would be great if you didn’t have to exit out to the main menu between flights to use the flight planner. If I want to fly from Airport A to Airport B, then on to Airport C, it spoils the immersion to have to go back to the main menu, plan the new flight and then have the sim reload with the aircraft in a different position and start it up from cold and dark again. This was possible in FSX, and I would frequently do a three-leg route in an airliner this way.
