Welcome to Crew-Accommodation

A dedicated accommodation platform built exclusively for aviation professionals.

Crew-Accommodation is a dedicated accommodation platform built exclusively for aviation professionals — pilots, cabin crew, engineers, air traffic controllers and other airport staff. We connect crew with crew-friendly places to stay near airports worldwide, and give hosts a simple way to reach this specialist audience.

Pilots & Cabin Crew

Find trusted, crew-friendly accommodation near your base airport.

Engineers & ATC

Accommodation for every kind of aviation professional.

Hosts

List your property and reach aviation crew directly.

A guide that grows with the platform

This guide describes Crew-Accommodation as it is today. New features will be added as new sections — so the guide evolves alongside the platform.

Creating and managing a property listing.

Rooms & Resources

Adding rooms and other resources to your property.
