Pilots can't take tips
Airline pilots generally aren't allowed to accept tips or gifts from passengers, so a few kind words go a long way. You can also:
- Say thanks on your way off the plane. The flight deck door is often open after landing.
- Send a compliment through the airline's feedback form with your flight number and date. Airlines pass compliments along to the crew.
- Make a thank-you donation to a pilot charity. It's optional, and 100% goes to the charity.

Questions
How do I thank an Icelandair pilot?
Leave a free note on the Icelandair pilots’ thank-you wall on this page, say thanks at the flight deck door as you leave, or send a compliment through the airline with your flight number and date.
Can you tip airline pilots?
Generally no. Airline pilots aren’t allowed to accept tips or gifts from passengers, so a sincere thank-you is the best way to show appreciation.
Will the pilots see my note?
Every airline has its own public wall here that anyone, including pilots, can read. Share the link with friends or with the crew to help your thanks reach them.
Is Thank ATC part of the airline?
No. Thank ATC is an independent, free website. It isn’t affiliated with any airline, pilot union, the FAA, NATCA or ALPA.
Thank the controllers too
Air traffic controllers guided your flight from the gate to the runway at the other end. You can thank the towers and centers along your route for free.
