Hey Product Hunt! 👋 Some of the best conversations start in a departure lounge — and then the moment's gone the second you board. I kept thinking: the most interesting person in the terminal is probably sitting three gates away, and we'll never know. So I built GateF1. GateF1 is dating for travelers. Check in at your airport and instantly see real people around you — right now, gate by gate. No swiping through strangers across the country. Just the people sharing your terminal. How it works 🛫 Check in at your airport and gate 🔎 Filter by flight status — who's heading in, at the gate, boarding, or just landed (timing is everything) 👋 Wave, don't swipe — like someone? Send a wave. Wave back = match 💬 Chat in real time — grab a coffee at the gate before they call your zone 🛡️ Face-verified profiles — every traveler passes a face check, so you know who you're talking to. Block & report in one tap, and we only use your location once to find your airport. Whether it's a 3-hour layover, a delayed red-eye, or your daily terminal commute — every trip is a chance to meet someone. Built with React Native + Expo and Firebase, shipping on Android now (iOS next). I'd love your honest feedback — what would make you actually wave at someone? 🙌 Find your fate at the gate.
