If your flight school runs on MyFBO, you have a deadline. MyFBO is shutting down on August 31, 2026, and after that date you need another home for scheduling, dispatch, and pilot currency. The good news is that moving does not have to be a fire drill. This guide walks through the steps to migrate off MyFBO in an orderly way, with time to spare. If you want the short version first, see our overview of the MyFBO replacement for flight schools.

Step 1: Take a quick inventory of what you keep in MyFBO

Before you move anything, write down what actually lives in your current system. For most flight schools that is a short list: your pilot and student roster, your instructors, your customer and account records, your aircraft, and your reservation history. Knowing what you have makes the rest of the move predictable.

You do not need to export spreadsheets or wrangle CSV files yourself. The point of the inventory is simply to confirm what should come across so nothing is missed. If you are still weighing the deadline, our note on what the MyFBO shutdown means for flight schools lays out the timeline in plain terms.

Step 2: Pick your timeline and book the migration

Migration to ScheduleFlight by FBO Director is assisted. Our team moves your pilots, instructors, customers, and account numbers for you, so the work on your side is mostly telling us your timeline and answering a few questions. Because the same August 31, 2026 date ends MyFBO and closes the founding-rate window, the cleanest plan is to schedule your move for the summer and not wait for the final week.

Step 3: Set up your hours, rules, and aircraft

With your records in place, you configure how your school runs: your hours of operation, blackout and closure dates, your aircraft, and the currency and policy rules you want checked at booking time. This is where a modern system earns its keep, because the schedule starts enforcing the things you used to track by hand.

Step 4: Run a short parallel period

For a week or two, keep your old workflow as a safety net while your staff and pilots start booking in the new system. A short overlap builds confidence and surfaces any preferences to adjust before MyFBO goes dark. Once everyone is comfortable, you stop using the old system.

Step 5: Turn MyFBO off before the deadline

Do not wait until the lights go out. Aim to be fully moved well before August 31, 2026 so the MyFBO shutdown is a non-event for your school. Your pilots keep booking, your instructors keep dispatching, and your currency tracking keeps running.
