The business idea is simple: we want to make rental of aircrafts as simple as possible for all parities be it the commercial operator, the club, the owner of a simple aircraft or the pilot renting the aircraft. The people behind ZangBird resides in a old office building in central Copenhagen – not far from where danish aviation pioneer Jacob Ellehammer became the first European to fly an aeroplane
September 12, 1906. Ou mission is to take the hassle out of aircraft rental. If you are the lucky owner of a single aircraft and would like to rent it out you can use ZangBird to get access to the pilots. This is an ideal way to reduce the cost of your favorite hobby and to connect with fellow pilots. If you are a company renting out aircrafts, ZangBird can be your booking platform to a fraction of the cost of other systems and with no up-front investment. If you have existing systems to handle billing, finance, planning etc., our development team will be happy to build integrations or to assist you or your it-partners in building these integrations. If you are a club you can get rid of custom coded booking platforms and give your members one easy interface. Administrators can check and change bookings and ensure that only members with proper certificates use the aircraft. Its free to join ZangBird
Owners and Pilots can join for free and start using the site immediately. ZangBird charges a fee per booking transaction. The price is a function of the number of bookings – the more bookings the lower price per booking down to as little as 10 euro per booking. Clubs can enter a very reasonable flat-fee agreement (500 euro per aircraft) to ensure predictability. Renting doesn’t get easer and safer than this
You can search the database for hundreds of airplanes or you can just focus on the planes you know and love from your favorite owner. The first time you want to rent a new plane the owner will have to approve you. Once you are approved, you just go to the site, find an available timeslot and book. Its done in less than a minute – and you can do it 24/7. Compliance is important for owners and clubs. To avoid issues with authorities and insurance companies you should be able to present documentation for certificates of all users of your aircraft for every single booking. ZangBird gives you just that, and you can download the documentation to your local computer. All Certificates are held in an encrypted data-vault with full logging and high level of protection in compliance with the European Data Protection Act.
