Wingly's advice for flying in the safest possible conditions
UPDATE: Following the latest announcements regarding the COVID pandemic, please be sure to check your local government regulations to ensure you are abiding by these.
When flying with strangers post-coronavirus, it is of paramount importance that you stick to these guidelines. After all, it’s been so long since we were last in the air, we wouldn’t want to jeopardise the long-awaited return!
For flights between Wingly pilots and passengers, we have put the following precautions in place in order to reduce and limit the potential of any hazard occurring:
