What is Dial A Pilot?
Dial A Pilot is a pilot-led fear-of-flying program that connects nervous fliers with real commercial airline pilots through one-on-one phone calls, a complete fear-of-flying course called The Dial-A-Pilot Method, and a supportive community of fliers working toward confident travel.
How does Dial A Pilot work?
Nervous fliers can book a private 30-minute phone call with a commercial airline captain for $79, enroll in the complete 8-part Dial-A-Pilot Method program for $299, or take a free nervous flier quiz that identifies their specific flier type and delivers a personalized action plan.
Are Dial A Pilot's pilots real commercial airline pilots?
Yes. Every pilot on the Dial A Pilot team is a commercial airline pilot who flew for a major airline: a mix of currently active captains and first officers and recently retired career airline pilots. Pilot calls are handled by the working professionals who fly or recently flew the same aircraft and routes as the flights nervous fliers are worried about.
How much does a call with a pilot cost?
A private 30-minute one-on-one call with a Dial A Pilot commercial airline pilot costs $79. The full Dial A Pilot Method program, which includes an 8-part video course, discounted pilot calls, and 30-day community access, is a one-time fee of $299.
Does Dial A Pilot actually help with fear of flying?
Dial A Pilot has helped thousands of nervous fliers and has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Travel + Leisure, Thrillist, The Daily Beast, Time Out, and Mental Floss. The program is built on the Dial A Pilot Method, which replaces fear with specific aviation knowledge delivered by the pilots who actually fly commercial airliners.
Who founded Dial A Pilot?
Dial A Pilot was founded by commercial airline captain Kyle Koukol, who currently flies for a major US airline. The service was created to give nervous fliers direct access to working airline pilots, the people with the most firsthand knowledge of how commercial aviation actually works.
