July 29, 2009 at AirPeople.ru - Do you fly airplanes?
The idea to create a social network for people using the air mode of transport came up with me when I first arrived at the Domodedovo airport.
I remember meeting the flight and arriving in advance, about an hour and a half, and thinking about what to do with myself, I went up to the second floor to the waiting room, from where I had a view of the airfield ... But this is so, the background. Briefly about the project:
The name " Air People " was invented almost immediately. It, perhaps, best reflects the essence of the project - it is a place for people who regularly fly both in Russia and abroad.
Those who fly from time to time or seasonally will also be happy)
An important difference from other websites about airlines is not just posting reviews about the quality of service / food on board / flight delays and other things, but more extensive topics about offers and promotions from various airlines, airport news, reviews, photo reports and of course free exchange of information between network members.
Not without romance - after all, aviation for some people, including me, is associated with the sea, the sun and adventure.
Thus, the target audience is very vast: from people who flew the economy class at least once in their lives, to oligarchs who have their own plane.
We will also be glad to see those who have never flown, but at a subconscious level in love with the sky.
Development plan:
Until mid-August, we find out which airlines will be in the top according to users, and then immediately open.
There is no clear step-by-step plan, and I won’t, so I can’t stand planning and deadlines in the work)
Acknowledgments:
I want to say many thanks to those who directly participated in the creation of Air People:
PS There is no karma at all, so for now in a personal blog. Maybe it’s for the better, because at the moment the startup is at the “promo” stage, the most interesting is yet to come) I will also be very glad to hear your thoughts, wishes, comments or corrections. Thanks.
