Build a network that earns
Choose airports and hubs, open routes, and publish schedules. Every expansion adds costs, so grow where the demand can support you.
Virtual Airlines
An airline built
by your crew.
A shared world of passengers, cargo and opportunity. Build an airline that can pay its bills, earn its reputation, and give your crew a reason to fly.
Free to join and fly. No Premium required.
The world behind every flight
Find the demand.
Make the route work.
FlyHub World simulates passenger and cargo demand around airports across the globe. The market is shared and limited: other airlines serve it too, and a busy airport does not guarantee a full aircraft on every route.
Your prices, reputation, schedule and aircraft all influence what you can carry. Add more seats than a route needs and you can end up with more cost, not more profit.
Put the right aircraft to work
Match capacity to the market. Account for fuel, daily leases, aircraft condition and maintenance. An idle aircraft still has a lease to pay.
Watch the whole business
A profitable flight can belong to a loss-making airline. Track flight results alongside your recurring bills, and keep enough cash for the next day.

Passengers & freight
It matters what
you carry.
Passenger demand responds to fares, reputation, cabin mix and aircraft condition. A premium seat only earns its keep when someone wants to book it.
Cargo brings a different challenge: weight and space both matter. The load changes, and the largest aircraft is not always the best fit. Carry passengers, freight, or a mix where your aircraft supports it.

Captain is for you. Growth is for your crew.
Personal Premium lets you create up to three airlines, including operating airlines. Growth is a separate roster subscription and does not increase that limit.
Compare personal plansWhat if I cancel Growth?
Your airline and existing reservations are preserved. Growth stays available until the end of your paid period. With 20 active pilots or fewer, you can keep running free. Above 20, renew or reduce your active roster before accepting new pilots or making new reservations; your airline may be paused until you do.

Your questions.
Straight answers.
Start as a pilot or bring your own airline. Here are the details before you get going.
Read the getting-started guideGetting started
Can I fly for free?
Yes. Create a free FlyHub account, join an airline, and start flying. You do not need Captain or Growth. Each airline chooses how it welcomes pilots and which aircraft they can fly.
Can I run my own airline?
Yes. Set up your pilot profile, choose your airline’s name and home airport, then select your first leased aircraft. Free accounts can run one airline; Captain allows up to three, including airlines within a group. The app shows the costs before you commit.
Do I need to understand airline finance to join?
No. As a pilot, you can pick an available flight and focus on flying it well. Owners and managers look after the fleet, network and finances. If you want to get involved, your airline can give you a management role.
Are the charter events real?
The events are real; the charter missions are simulated. Fresh missions throughout the week draw on sport, concerts, festivals and other events around the world. Each mission has its own story, route, time window and available passengers or cargo.
Is the airline’s money real?
No. Your airline earns and spends FH$, a virtual currency with no cash value. Fuel, aircraft leases and other running costs are paid from that virtual balance. They are separate from any real-money FlyHub subscription.
Plans & billing
When does my airline need Growth?
Your first 20 active pilots are included free. Growth is needed to add pilot 21 and keep operating above that limit. The owner counts if they are an active pilot; pending applications and inactive pilots do not.
What does Growth cost?
USD 15 per month, plus tax, paid by the airline owner. It is one flat fee, not a charge for every pilot. If you run a group, that subscription covers the shared pilot roster across its airlines. The 20 free places are shared too.
Is Growth included with Captain?
No. Captain is your personal Premium plan, with FlyHub’s Premium features and room to create up to three airlines. Growth gives an airline or group room for more than 20 active pilots. It does not increase the number of airlines you can create.
What happens if I cancel Growth?
Cancel in Manage airline → Ownership. Growth stays available until the end of your paid period. With 20 active pilots or fewer, your airline can keep running free. Above 20, you will need to renew or reduce the active roster before accepting new pilots or making new reservations; the airline may be paused until you do. A missed payment has a seven-day grace period.
Will I lose my airline or booked flights?
No. Cancelling Growth keeps your members, applications, balance, reputation and flight history. Existing reservations stay in place, with their usual expiry and flight rules. Nobody is automatically removed from your crew. Cancelling Captain also keeps airlines you already have, but may prevent you from creating more.
