Yond is a live reference for private aviation: thousands of charter aircraft, tens of thousands of airports and transparent price estimates — all in one app, always current, fully searchable even offline. Traditionally, learning what a private flight involves — which aircraft exist, where they are, what a trip should cost — meant asking around and taking someone's word for it. Yond puts the data itself in your hands, so you know what to expect before you talk to anyone. WHAT IS INSIDE - 5,000+ charter aircraft with photos, cabin specs, amenities, range, speed and year — plus their last known positions from public flight-tracking data. - 43,000+ airports worldwide on an interactive map: size, elevation, local time and how many charter aircraft are usually based there. - Transparent price estimates for any route: a realistic range built from aircraft positions, fuel burn, airport fees and taxes — with the full cost breakdown one tap away. - Fly from a nearby airport: see at a glance when departing a few miles away could save thousands. - Instant ballpark estimates by aircraft class for any city pair, and a browser of popular charter routes. - Empty legs: discounted one-way flights worldwide, searched by airport and radius — follow an airport and get a notification when new legs appear nearby. - Requests: ask an independent charter broker about any aircraft or empty leg and get the reply right in the app. - Everything works offline: the aircraft database, the airports and the pricing engine live on your device. ABOUT YOND Yond is not an air carrier and does not sell, arrange or operate flights. Prices are estimates, not offers. Charter flights are sold by independent brokers or operators and operated by FAA-certificated Part 135 carriers (or carriers holding equivalent foreign authority). A request from the app goes to an independent charter broker, who replies in the app; Yond itself never sells a flight. Download Yond and see private aviation as it actually is — current, complete and transparent.
