What kind of experiences can I expect to have as a Wingly Pilot?

Wingly is more than just a service to help save you money and build your experience, it is a social platform through which you will connect with fantastic people and create lost-lasting memories. From seasoned aviation enthusiasts to those who have never flown before, Wingly passengers each present you with the opportunity to share your passion for aviation, to educate and to make dreams a reality.



We regularly hear from pilots who become fond of flying with our passengers, with stories of in-flight proposals, birthday trips, and nostalgia flights that enable them to form lasting bonds. Couple all of this with the personalised guidance and support you will experience from our team and you will start to get a sense of Wingly not only as a platform but as a community.



If you have any questions, you can contact us directly at tower@wingly.io or by phone on +447708405306. We are available from Monday to Friday from 8:30 to 17:30.
