CrewPlanet is the verified network for airline crew. Everyone proves they work for an airline before they can see or post anything, so there are no tourists and no bots. Business accounts are invite-only, and we are opening a small number in Amsterdam.
The things that make crew awkward for ordinary marketing are exactly what make them valuable to a neighbourhood business.
Crew fly the same routes for years. One good first visit turns into a standing habit on every rotation through Amsterdam.
A layover is hours to spend in an unfamiliar city, with an allowance that is meant to be spent locally.
One crew member who likes your place brings the rest of the crew next time. Tables of six rather than tables of one.
Aviation is a small, tightly connected profession. A recommendation travels between colleagues faster than any advertising.
Layovers do not follow office hours. Crew fill the quiet parts of your week, not the Saturday rush you already have.
Crew confirm their employment with an airline email address before they can use the app, so you are not paying attention to bots.
Publish an offer for verified crew and it appears in the deals feed and on your city's page. Change it whenever you like, as often as you like.
Your logo, description, address, website and socials, shown to crew browsing your city. Events sit alongside your offers, so a tasting or a quiet hour reaches the same people.
Tell us who you are and where you are. We will talk about whether it is a fit, for both sides.
A one-time invite code, by email. It is the only way to open a business account.
Download the app, redeem the code, and fill in your business profile. A few minutes.
Your first deal or event, whenever you are ready.
Crew are careful about who knows where they are, and several airlines actively discourage them from posting their location. That shapes how this works, and it protects you too.
No names, no contact details, no lists. Business accounts cannot browse crew profiles or message individual crew members. That is enforced in the app, not just promised here.
We do not tell you who walked past, who viewed your profile, or where anyone is.
Crew prove their employment to us. You get a verified audience without ever handling anyone's identity.
Deals and events are checked automatically before they go live, and a person can take anything down. Nobody can pose as your business without an invite from us.
CrewPlanet is early. We are deliberately building depth around one airport before spreading out, because a crew network with a handful of members in fifty cities is useful to nobody, and a partnership built on an inflated number is worth even less.
So: Amsterdam first, a small number of founding partners, and honest figures whenever you ask for them. If you would rather wait until we are bigger, that is a completely reasonable answer and we will keep you on the list.
Businesses in and around Amsterdam and Schiphol: cafés, restaurants and bars, hotels and short-stay, gyms and studios, spas and wellness, barbers and salons, experiences and rentals. Somewhere else in the world? Tell us anyway. We open new bases based on where crew and partners actually are, and we keep a list.
Crew trust the app only as long as everything in it is relevant and real. Vetting partners up front is cheaper than moderating a free-for-all, and it keeps your listing from being buried under a hundred others.
Something clear and genuinely worth the detour: a fixed discount, a free item with a purchase, or access to something normally unavailable. Vague or heavily conditional offers get ignored.
No. Deals are shown to verified crew in your city, whoever they fly for. Crew change airlines more often than you would think.
No. Crew stay all over Amsterdam and head into the city on layovers. Being easy to reach by public transport matters far more than being close to Schiphol.
Once you have a code, a few minutes, and you can publish straight away.
A couple of lines is plenty: who you are, where you are, and what you might offer crew. A person reads these and you will get a real reply, not an automated sequence.
