This doesn't only happen to women. It happens to minors too.

If you're a father, a brother, a grandfather, a mother, a sister, an aunt, a grandmother, this is for you. Statistically, more than five billion passenger trips are taken every year, and women make up close to half of them, in some countries now the majority. Your donation is how we do something about it.

It's Not Just About the Woman in the Aisle Seat

Minors fly too, and not always next to the adult who's supposed to be watching them. Airlines routinely seat children apart from their parents, especially on discount fares. The U.S. Department of Transportation has spent years fielding complaints about young children seated rows away from a parent, sometimes next to a stranger. If something happens in that seat, the adult who could step in may not even be close enough to know.

Why This Shouldn't Require a Lawsuit at All

If in-flight sexual assault is already a federal felony, and it is, why does a woman or a family need to hire a lawyer and fight an international treaty just to be taken seriously? This should be a basic protection, not a legal battle only the people who can afford it get to fight. Your donation funds the legal work, the fact-checking, and the advocacy that make this fight possible for people who could never afford to take it on alone.

Where Your Donation Goes

Every gift supports FlySafe's legal and policy work behind reforming the Montreal Convention, the fact-checking and compliance that keep our advocacy credible, and the resources we provide to women and families. This is not direct financial assistance paid out to individuals, it's the infrastructure that makes real, lasting change possible.

We also have volunteers stationed at airports distributing flyers and information to travelers. Your donation helps pay these volunteers, easy to spot in their turquoise FlySafe tops.
