New mobile app for pilots, cabin staff is the latest rage among airline community
There will be love in the air, promises CrewMe — the mobile app for pilots and crew members in transit.
CrewMe has been developed by a pilot himself — for fellow pilots and crew members who feel lonely and jet-lagged, especially on long-distance trips. CrewMe works much like any mobile dating app. It allows you to search for a match in a certain radius.
Swipe left, if you're not interested. Swipe right, if you're. When two members swipe right, we have a match.
Members connect through their nicknames and the airlines they work for. The app gives you the member profile and provides live information about whether the member you are interested in is on a long-haul flight or on a layover. It will send an alert when the member is geographically close again.
“Don't waste your time in transit!” CrewMe advises airline staff. Then it tells us: “Our mobile app will revolutionalize airline crew's lifestyle!
That seems to be true. There is already a buzz among airline community members on social media over CrewMe. The only complaint so far against the app is that, at times, it gives some technical glitches.
“It's impressive. Quite a few people from our profession I know are trying it out” said a crew member with a private airline in India. Right now, CrewMe has free as well as paid versions.
So, what do all these leave the passengers with? Well, as a passenger, you can't, of course, hold any CrewMe hopes. But worry not. CrewMe, actually, is a late entrant. Dating apps for passengers had hit the scene long time back.
Dont' know yet? Here are two: Meet at the Airport and Wingman. Both are already quite popular among travellers who find spending time at the airport boring.
So, with CrewMe joining the likes of Meet at the Airport and Wingman, fasten your seat belts: there's going to be lots of love — in the air and on the ground. No one's going to crib about flight delays anymore, and there is nothing wrong if check-in timings are advanced by a few hours.
