# Layover Layover is the only private network for verified aviation professionals. Need a beer in a nowhere-town? Looking for someone who actually understands reserve life, red-eyes, AOG's, and crossing six time zones in three days? That's why Layover exists. ## Who's Here * Pilots * Flight Attendants * Dispatchers * Air Traffic Controllers * Maintenance * Charter & Corporate Aviation * Ground Operations * Approved travel industry professionals Every member is verified before joining. ## What You Can Do ### Meet Your People Whether you're looking for networking, friendship, dating, or just someone to grab dinner with during a layover, you decide what you're open to and find people on the same wavelength. ### Drop a Pin In Omaha tonight? Montgomery tomorrow? Stuck in a hotel by the airport with nothing to do? Drop a pin and see who else is around. ### Chat With Connections Connect directly with other verified members and keep the conversation going wherever work takes you. ### Find the Right Vibe Set your intent: * Dating * Drinks * Networking * Adventure * Layover No guessing. No mixed signals. ## How Verification Works Every member submits: * Profile photos * Industry information * A verification photo Every application is reviewed by peers in the aviation industry, not an algorithm. Most approvals happen within 24 hours. ## Why "Crew Only"? Because aviation is different. Our schedules are weird. Our cities change every week. Most people don't understand what life on the road is actually like. Layover is designed for people who do. No bots. No tourists. No posers. Just verified members from the aviation community, by the aviation community. ## Privacy & Safety * Your exact GPS location is never shared * Locations are displayed as cities only * Profiles are visible only to verified members * Block and reporting tools are built in * Reports are reviewed within 72 hours * You can delete your account and data at any time Verification helps reduce fake accounts, but always use common sense and meet new people in public places. ## Getting Started 1. Create your account 2. Add your photos and verification photo 3. Wait for approval 4. Start matching, dropping pins, and finding crew wherever you fly Aviation is a small world. Layover helps you find your corner of it.
