Flapper operates a private aviation marketplace which provides per-seat bookings as well as whole aircraft charters.

[2] The idea of an "Uber of Executive Aviation" was conceived of by Sergey Terentyev (CEO Qiwi), Arthur Vizin, Iago Senefonte, and William Oliveira, all employees of NASDAQ listed fintech Qiwi, who together founded the company with CEO Paul Malicki.

[4] A passenger can book a seat through a smartphone app, which also enables users to charter an entire plane or helicopter on demand.

Users can also check each aircraft's certificates of airworthiness and maintenance, verify their aeronautical and civil liability insurance, and verify each company's certification by the National Civil Aviation Agency of Brazil.

[7][8] In October 2018 it was reported that Flapper is planning on adding electric helicopters to its flight sharing service, predicted to begin in 2021.
