Where to meet the pilot

Once your booking request has been confirmed by the pilot, you will find the exact departure location in your Wingly profile under "My Bookings". The pilot will also contact you via the Wingly Messenger with all further details.

You will also have access to the pilot's telephone number and e-mail address, so that you can contact him outside our platform, and if you have any problems on the day of your flight. You can find this contact information in the booking section of your Wingly profile under "Pilot Information".
