Brief every flight, end-to-end.
PreBrief is a pre-flight briefing for passengers, written and curated by an active A350 line captain. Tell it your flight number; it walks you from T-7d to wheels-up with the cards a pilot would actually care about.
How it works
Add your flight number. PreBrief pulls the schedule, aircraft, and route, then builds a personalised checklist that wakes up at the moments that matter — T-7d, T-72h, T-48h, T-24h, T-2h, T-30m. Each card is one short, opinionated instruction. Time-sensitive notifications fire as you approach departure so you don't miss check-in or boarding.
What's in the box
Live countdown to your departure, ticking down to the second.
Smart rules — long-haul, ultra-long-range, widebody, A380 / A350 / 787, per-airline carry-on policy.
Passport-aware visa hints — visa-required, e-visa, visa-on-arrival.
Destination briefing — currency, plug type, eSIM availability, arrival weather, visa hints.
Captain's notes — per-aircraft and per-route writeups for the widebodies and route families you fly.
Time to leave — set your home once; traffic-aware leave-by alerts via Apple Maps, five-minute heads-up before you need to go.
Flight rights helper — EU261, UK261, and US DOT rules, with one-tap pre-filled compensation emails when something goes wrong.
In-flight companion — phase-by-phase narration from boarding through landing, designed for nervous flyers.
Time-sensitive alerts at every T-bucket, with a one-tap "mark complete" inline action.
Privacy-first. Trips and preferences stay on your device, syncing only via your iCloud.

Every rule and card is reviewed by an A350 captain who flies the routes the app talks about. The checklist evolves as new aircraft, airlines, and operational quirks come up — there's no anonymous content team.
