I sucessfuly used the Tracker to track a SWA flight on 21 March from Reno to BWI.

Apparently SWA recycle flight numbers. Today 30 March I get a Tracking Alert when SWA left Reno using the same flight number.

I have searched the site looking for a place to cancel the request. My assumption was that after the flight I tracked was completed. The request would be null and void.

What am I missing or is the system have a bug in it. Regardless, I do not want an alert every time SWA uses that flight number out of Reno.

From your [alerts page](http://flightaware.com/live/alerts/) (linked to from [your profile](https://flightaware.com/account/manage/)) you can disable or delete alerts you don’t want.
