Price increases

Wingly is a platform that connects you with private pilots for shared-cost flights, allowing you to experience flying and share in their passion for aviation. While this offers a unique experience, flight prices can occasionally change due to factors beyond our control.

Price changes may arise from fluctuations in fuel costs, changes to the aircraft, or adjustments to airfield fees. As pilots share the costs with their passengers, any increase in the pilot's fees will be reflected in the flight price. This ensures a fair distribution of the costs.

We understand that these changes might come as a surprise, but please be assured that they are infrequent. To avoid surprises, we recommend reaching out to the pilot before booking to discuss options that fit your budget. ( Click here to learn how to contact a pilot before submitting a booking request ).

At Wingly, we are committed to providing a positive experience that meets your expectations. If needed, feel free to email us, and we’ll assist you in finding an alternative flight that fits within your budget.
