Text AviPrep

Your flight schedule, by text message.

Text AviPrep the way you would text the front desk. It checks the airplane and the instructor, writes back what it found, and changes nothing until you reply YES.

AviPrep texting number

(814) 802-3367

Texting is optional. You can use AviPrep without it. To opt in, add your mobile number and check the consent box on the signup form below (or under Settings in your account), or text START (or the join code your school, club or airplane's owner gave you) to the number above. Either way you get one SMS asking you to reply YES to confirm you want text messages from AviPrep.

What you will receive

Flight scheduling SMS messages from AviPrep: replies to the scheduling requests you text (aircraft availability, bookings, blocks), booking and block confirmations, and account and schedule notices. No marketing or promotional messages.

By opting in you agree to receive the flight scheduling text messages described above from AviPrep at the number you provide. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies with how you use the service. Reply STOP to cancel at any time, HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of purchase. See our Terms and Privacy Policy.

How you opt in

Three ways, all optional and all requiring your own action. Creating an account, booking, and paying never require texting. Every method shows the consent language below before your number is saved, and every one is followed by a text asking you to reply YES.

  1. 1On the signup form. The mobile number field and the consent box are optional and unchecked by default; the form submits without them. Signed-in users can also add a number later under Settings → Text AviPrep.
  2. 2By texting a code. Flight schools, clubs and aircraft owners post their code next to our number. Texting the code starts the consent exchange; nothing is sent until you reply YES.
  3. 3Added by your operator. If your school or club adds your number after you ask them to, the first text asks you to reply YES. If you never reply, no further texts are sent.

Create your AviPrep account

Your email creates the account. Adding a mobile number and texting is optional; you can sign up without either and turn texting on later under Settings, or never.

Optional. Leave it unchecked and you will not receive text messages.

No texts will be sent unless you check the box above and later reply YES to our confirmation text.

The texts you receive

AviPrep: Reply YES to confirm you want to receive flight scheduling text messages from AviPrep (replies to your requests, booking confirmations, schedule notices). Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel.

YES

AviPrep: You're confirmed. Text me to book, block or check your schedule, like "Is the 172 open Saturday morning?". Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help, STOP to cancel.

What you can text

  • "Is the 172 open Saturday morning?"
  • "Book me 9 to 11 Tuesday"
  • "Block N208AV tomorrow 8 to 10"
  • "Who is flying Saturday?"
  • "Put Dave in the 172 every Tuesday 4 to 6 through December"

What we send

Replies to what you ask, a proposal to confirm before anything is booked or blocked, a confirmation once you reply YES, and the occasional notice about your account or schedule. No marketing or promotional messages.

Stopping and help

Reply STOP to any message to end all texts; you get one confirmation and nothing more. Reply START to turn them back on. Reply HELP for examples, or email alex@aviprep.net. You can also turn texting off under Settings in your dashboard.

Your number stays yours

Mobile numbers, SMS opt-in data, and contact information are not shared with or sold to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. We use Twilio to deliver messages and share your number with the instructor or operator you book with so they can reach you about that booking, and nothing else. Details in our Privacy Policy.
