A new service launched last month that may make your trip to and from the airport just a little easier and less costly. FlyPool is an online platform and app that facilitates carpooling, specifically to airports around the world.

To use FlyPool, download the app via either the Apple App Store or Google Play store, and then start scheduling trips to and from the airport. The app and rides are both totally free, instead operating off a point system. You can earn points to spend on rides by completing in-app tasks (like watching ads) or, if you offer to use your own vehicle to help others carpool to the airport, you’ll also earn points that can be similarly used or redeemed for discounts with FlyPool partners. Any profits FlyPool makes from ad partners are donated to an NGO you can help choose.

 

“At FlyPool, we share a vision of mobility that transcends borders, making travel more accessible, friendlier and environmentally sustainable. Every carpool is an opportunity to move towards a sustainable and carbon-free mode of transport. Together, let’s create a world where the essence of travel is in harmony with environmental responsibility,” said Mathieu Burthey, CEO, FlyPool.
