04 · About

Built by pilots, for pilots

GetAGlider is a marketplace for soaring. We started because finding a glider to fly when you travel is harder than it should be — and because most gliders sit idle for most of the season. Our goal is to put more pilots in more cockpits, safely.

Operated by Swiss Sailplane GmbH and available across Europe. Trust, verification and clear contracts are the core of how the platform works.

Frequently asked

Who can rent a glider on GetAGlider?+

Any licensed pilot. You upload your license, medical and insurance once during signup; owners see verified badges before they accept your request.

How is payment handled?+

Payments and refundable deposits are processed by Stripe. Funds are held until 7 days after the rental ends, then automatically transferred to the owner.

What about insurance and damage?+

Each listing declares the included insurance and excess. A refundable deposit is captured at booking and released after the return checklist is completed.

Can I cancel?+

Yes. Each listing publishes a cancellation policy (flexible / moderate / strict). The refund is computed automatically when you cancel.

Where can I fly?+

Anywhere the owner allows. Listings show the home airfield, and the rental agreement defines the operating area.
