AerScheduler vs Schedule Pointe
A modern alternative to Schedule Pointe
Every screen in AerScheduler was drawn for a flight line rather than adapted from another industry, the price is published, and you can be dispatching this afternoon instead of waiting for a call back. If you are on Schedule Pointe today, we help you move what you can export and configure the school with you, and nothing forces a cutover date.
$20/aircraft/mo · 14-day trial · No credit card · No sales call
Switching, without the project
The reason schools stay somewhere they have outgrown is rarely the software. It is the week they imagine losing to moving. Here is what actually happens.
A person moves your data, not an importer
Export what you can out of Schedule Pointe and we get it into AerScheduler with you. Odd formats and missing fields become a conversation rather than a dead end, because a human is doing it.
We set the school up with you
Aircraft, rates, instructors, permissions and booking rules, configured with the team that builds the product. On a call if you want one, and never as a condition of signing up.
Keep both running until you are ready
Nothing forces a cutover date. Run Schedule Pointe alongside AerScheduler and stop using it when the front desk stops opening it, which is usually the moment you know.
Nothing to sign, nothing locked in
14 days free and no card to start. Every report exports to CSV, so the answer to "what if we change our mind" is a download rather than a support ticket.

Maintenance that stops a dispatch, not just a report
Squawks, inspections and due dates. When an aircraft comes due it grounds itself on the board. Try grounding one and watch the schedule react.

Why schools move
- The price is published, so you can decide without booking a call
- Every screen was designed for a flight school, not adapted from another industry
- Self-serve signup, on the schedule the same day
- Maintenance, dispatch and invoicing are the same system, not three modules that have to agree
What running the day looks like
The whole school sees the same schedule, immediately
A booking change reaches every browser and phone in the school as it happens, so the front desk, the instructor walking to the ramp and the student at home are never looking at three different versions of today.
Scheduling & DispatchAn aircraft that is out of annual cannot be booked
Inspections carry server-computed due dates against hours and calendar time. When one comes due the aircraft grounds itself on the board, so nobody dispatches a tail that should not fly.
MaintenanceThe flight closes itself out into an invoice
Ramp in with Hobbs, tach and fuel, and the invoice drafts from the rates already on the tail. No export, no second system, no evening spent reconciling the day's flying against the schedule.
BillingSimulators and classrooms cost nothing
They are first-class resources on the dispatch board, bookable like any tail, and they never appear on your bill. You pay $20 per aircraft and nothing else, however many people you invite.
PricingOne reservation can hold several people, and several invoices
A ground-school class, two pilots sharing a cross-country, a checkride with an examiner. Split the cost per head, by logged time, or in shares you set, and everyone gets their own invoice.
Split billingSide-by-side
Schedule Pointe is a trademark of its owner. Rows describe what each product publishes; "not published" means we could not confirm it, not that it is absent.
When we may not be the right fit
- You run charter alongside training and need crew duty-time tracking, which we do not build
- You schedule something other than aircraft and want one vendor across all of it
- You need a workflow or integration we do not cover yet
Common questions
- How much does Schedule Pointe cost?
- Schedule Pointe does not publish pricing and asks you to arrange a custom demo. AerScheduler publishes one number: $20 per aircraft per month, every user included.
- Is AerScheduler built only for aviation?
- Yes. Flight schools, flying clubs and aircraft rental operations, and nothing else. Schedule Pointe sells scheduling into aviation alongside several other industries from the same platform.
- Does AerScheduler track inspection due dates?
- Yes. Inspections carry server-computed due dates against both hours and calendar time, and an aircraft that comes due grounds itself on the dispatch board so nobody can book it.
- Can I sign up without booking a demo?
- Yes. Signup is self-serve and takes minutes. There is also a live demo you can open with no account at all.
