wingman Chat
The chat app built for Airplane Mode.
Connect with people on your flight — no Wi-Fi, no roaming, no SIM. Start a chat with your seatmates or travelers around you.
Offline. Private. Instant.
How It Works
-
Turn on Airplane Mode and open the app — it auto-discovers nearby users.
-
Add your name, seat number, and a photo — this helps others recognize who’s nearby.
-
See a live list of other travelers who are also using Wingman on the same flight.
-
Tap any profile to open a private chat. You can message, react with emojis, and reply — all completely offline.
-
When your flight ends or you close the app, your chats disappear automatically. Nothing is stored, synced, or uploaded.
Where conversations take off — even at 35,000 feet.
Wingman creates a local peer-to-peer network on the plane, letting passengers chat, share travel tips, and pass the time — without internet or registration.
