AirPooler: like car pooling, but with airplanes.
The same way Uber and Lyft connect drivers and passengers for a quick and affordable ride, AirPooler connects pilots with passengers willing to share fuel costs and other travel expenses. Using AirPooler's website, passengers enter a trip they want to take, and if available, are connected to pilots who would be making that flight anyway.
It sounds quite practical, in theory, but of course there is room for a wealth of risks. Recognizing that, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently declared AirPooler is not operating legally.
