A warm welcome from Women in Aviation International
Rendezvous App – Whitt H., Mellisa Whitfield, Brentin Wilson

Rendezvous is the world's most powerful layover networking platform — tactical social, built for the sky. Born from a simple truth that aircrew aviation has been ignored for decades: pilots and flight attendants are among the most well-traveled people on the planet, yet they've never had a platform built specifically for the way they live, move, and connect. Rendezvous changes that. By syncing crew schedules in real time, the app surfaces who's in the same city, on the same layover, at the same moment — turning dead hours between flights into genuine connection, local exploration, and professional community. It is not a generic social network retrofitted for aviation. It was conceived, designed, and backed by aircrew who understood the rhythms, the irregular hours, the 3 AM van rides, and the loneliness of a solo layover in a city full of colleagues you never knew were there. Available now at gotrendezvous.com, Rendezvous is the professional network aviation has always needed — finally built by the only people qualified to build it.
