VYNTARA — the travel companion built for non-rev flying. Vyntara is made for airline employees and their families who fly standby. You verify your airline ID (or proof of family travel benefits) when you sign up. THREE FEATURES AT THE HEART OF VYNTARA • Route Finder — Plan your way from A to B. Build smart multi-leg routes and see the connections that get you where you're going. • Airport Search — Search any airport and instantly see which airlines fly there — and exactly where each airline flies to and from that airport. Perfect for choosing the right airline and mapping your route. • Off-Schedule Flights — Keep an eye on the movements that matter to non-rev travelers: ferry (positioning) flights, added extra sections, and heavily delayed flights — all in one place. BUILT FOR AIRLINE EMPLOYEES & THEIR FAMILIES Made for the people who fly standby. Free once you're verified; unlock the full set of non-rev tools with Non-Rev Pro or a $0.99 Day Pass. Vyntara — your non-rev travel companion. Vyntara is not affiliated with or endorsed by any airline. Airline names and logos are trademarks of their respective owners.
