Is StaffTraveler free?

Quick, reliable and free! StaffTraveler enables you to get the accurate, reliable non-rev loads you need, from your colleagues at the airline you need them from. We have over 700,000 members from all airlines in the world, answering more than 25,000 load requests each day.



Yes, StaffTraveler is a free-to-download and free-to-use app designed specifically for the global airline community to facilitate "non-rev" (non-revenue) or standby travel. In 2026, the platform continues to operate on a "give and take" credit system: you earn credits by providing flight load information for your own airline to other users, and you spend those credits to request load information for other airlines' flights. While the core functionality of requesting and providing loads is free, the app does offer a Premium or "PRO" version (and an eSIM service) which provides an ad-free experience and additional perks for a subscription fee. For airline employees, it remains the "gold standard" tool for checking how "full" a flight is before attempting to use their employee travel benefits on carriers like Delta, Emirates, or Lufthansa. With over 1.1 million members in 2026, the community-driven nature of the app ensures high accuracy, making it an essential resource for anyone working in the aviation industry who enjoys the thrill—and uncertainty—of standby travel.
