Your roster, priced. AeroCommute turns your crew roster into a commute plan. Every unbooked duty shows what it actually costs to get to base and home again — live fares, staff travel loads and cabin prices, colour-coded so a glance tells you which trips are cheap to commute to and which are going to hurt. WHAT YOU GET • Roster-aware pricing — every duty on your roster priced for the commute in and out, refreshed as fares move. • Price history — tap any price badge to see how that flight has moved, so you know whether today's fare is worth booking. • Price-drop alerts — set your own threshold per airport and get a notification the moment a flight goes under it. • Report-time aware options — flight lists that respect your report and off-duty times, your slip time and your night-before rules. • Hotline search — round-trip hotline fares with staff seat availability; save a pair and keep watching it. • Staff travel loads — seat availability shown next to the fare, so you can judge the standby risk before you commit. • Whole-trip view — sectors, slips, nightstops and totals in one tap. • Works offline — roster and prices are cached on device, so it all still reads with no signal. BUILT FOR CREW WHO DON'T LIVE AT BASE AeroCommute is built for airline flight crew and cabin crew who commute to work. It speaks roster, not calendar: report times, slips, nightstops, day returns and multi-day tours, short-haul and long-haul. SUBSCRIPTION AeroCommute is free to download and starts with 1 month free.
