About Us

Welcome to FlySharing.com.au, a community of pilots brought together by the rising cost of general aviation and a desire to share our love of flying with adventurous travellers.

FlySharing.com.au’s mission is simple. It’s to provide a forum for pilots and passengers to connect in order to share flights. The opportunity to carry passengers on their flights benefits the pilots by allowing them to possible share the cost of the trip and the passenger benefits by being able to travel without being restricted by commercial flight schedules and flight patterns. Often, travellers can save money flying with FlySharing.com.au instead of flying commercially. In addition to the cost savings, general aviation flights are much more convenient. Pilots can frequently deliver you much closer to your destination than possibly a commercial flight can.

Benefits:

  • No cost at all to use the service.
  • Connect with other pilots/passengers who have similar interests/destinations
  • Provide friendly company on some of those trips you take.
  • Self Registration online with verification email
  • Maintain/Edit your own trip listings
  • Pull down select list of most aerodromes for Australia and New Zealand
  • Trips are drawn up online using Google maps
  • Contact the person listing the trip anonymously via online form
  • Current listings available via RSS

FlySharing is easy to use. Pilots post the trips that they are willing to take passengers on and potential passengers can view the postings that match the trips they would like to make.

If Pilots/Passengers want to negotiate any cost sharing whatsoever, then this is done directly between themselves (as it always has been), and outside of the bounds of this service.
