CrewConnect vs GroundTime

The best social app for pilots & cabin crew worldwide. Being a pilot or cabin crew comes with an incredible lifestyle — but it can also feel isolating.

Meanwhile, hundreds of other crew members from different airlines are in the same place at the same time. CrewConnect changes that. It brings together pilots and cabin crew from around the world — whether you're on a layover or at your home base — to connect, explore, and share real experiences. Break out of your airline bubble.

Your global crew community starts here.
