WingPath helps airline employees master airport and airline IATA codes — built for the way you actually work and travel. Whether you're a new gate agent learning your first 120 codes, a flight attendant picking up routes on a new base, or an avgeek who wants to know every field on the map, WingPath adapts to what you know and drills what you don't. Pick your home airport and airline, and your journey expands outward — home base and neighbors first, then your airline's network, then the world. EVERY SESSION IS A BOARDING PASS Ten questions, one timer, all from memory. Multiple choice while a code is new; typed recall once you're ready to prove it. Spaced repetition decides what surfaces and when, so you spend time on codes that are slipping — not the ones you've known since day one. EARN MILES. CLEAR GATES. LAND TERMINALS. Sessions earn miles, miles clear gates, and gates carry you through terminals — from shift-ready to your airline's full network. Every airport climbs from Wheels Up to Cruising to Landed as you prove you know it cold. BUILT FOR THE JUMPSEAT Study offline on the plane, in the crew lounge, or 35,000 feet over the Pacific. Everything syncs through your own iCloud when you land. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account to create, no tracking, no third-party analytics. Your learning data lives on your device and in your private iCloud — we never receive it. WINGPATH PRO The free version includes ten full sessions every day — enough to train for your shift, no account required. WingPath Pro removes the limit and unlocks the Explore tab: look up any airport's code, city, and serving airlines, with your personal stats, accuracy history, and a Trouble Hub that tracks the codes you keep missing. Monthly or yearly, same privacy promise either way: your data never leaves your device and your iCloud.
