“Given the state of the airline industry—the cost of flying is creeping up every year while the experience of flying gets worse—it’s no surprise that someone figured out how to take the ride-sharing business model from cars and adapt it to planes.  Prices are far from prohibitive. Right now, the service lists a round-trip flight from Palo Alto, California to Sacramento this weekend for under $180. A comparable economy ticket from United Airlines with such short notice is over $800.  Part of the reason tickets are so cheap is because the Federal Aviation Administration prohibits private pilots from accepting personal payment.”
