For the families of airline crew
Know where your person is — and when they're home.
An always-on display for the kitchen. See where your pilot or flight attendant is right now, and when they'll walk back through the door — in plain language, never airline jargon.
Built by a commercial airline pilot. The crewmember always controls what's shared.
What you'll see
A glance from the kitchen tells you everything.
Airline schedules are built for operations, not for the people at home. TouchBase turns them into calm, human sentences — reassuring for a partner, simple enough for a child.
- Right now“Dad is flying — over the North Atlantic.”Live position from the aircraft itself.
- Connection“Best time to call: after 8:30 PM.”So the kids catch them before bed, in their timezone.
- The countdown“Expected home tomorrow.”An honest arrival estimate the whole family can see — and updated when the schedule moves.
How it works
Three minutes to set up. Zero jargon after that.
The crewmember connects
They import their airline schedule in one step and choose exactly what the family can see. Privacy stays in their hands.
The display comes alive
Place it in the kitchen or living room. The globe quietly follows every leg — takeoffs, layovers, hotels, rest.
Home has a countdown
Everyone can glance and know: where they are, when to call, and when the door opens again.
Who's building it
Built by a commercial airline pilot.
TouchBase started at home. Its founder flies for a living, has read the pairing codes and the reflow notices, and has watched a family try to plan a week around them. That's why the crewmember holds the privacy controls, and why nothing on the display speaks in airline jargon.
