That’s why we’re investing in technology that helps guests fuel their journeys how they want, when they want.

The Way People Order Food Has Evolved, and Pilot is Evolving with Them

We’re modernizing the ordering experience at Pilot’s fast-food restaurants by adopting the same brand-recognized technology platforms used by our restaurant partners. This rollout is complete at Wendy’s and Arby’s locations and is underway at Subway® locations across our network. These upgrades create a more connected experience that brings together in-store ordering, mobile apps, loyalty programs and third-party delivery services.

Giving Guests More Ways to Order Food

Today’s guests expect speed and flexibility when ordering from their favorite quick-service restaurants. Pilot’s restaurant ordering systems are designed to meet those expectations.

Guests can choose from multiple ways to order a fast-food meal, including traditional counter service, self-order kiosks, restaurant mobile apps and third-party delivery platforms. This variety gives our guests the power to choose the ordering experience that works best for them and can reduce wait times, helping drivers make the most of their miles.

A Personalized Ordering Experience

Pilot has installed 156 self-order kiosks in our 78 Wendy’s locations across North America. This enhancement provides flexible ordering options and supports faster service and improved efficiency.

Self-order kiosks give guests greater control over ordering their meals. Guests can easily customize menu items, add or remove ingredients and review their selections before placing an order. This improves order accuracy and allows our guests to build meals to match their preferences. Whether a guest wants extra toppings, no onions or a baked potato instead of fries, the digital kiosk makes customization simple.

The self-order kiosks are also ADA-compliant, helping ensure the ordering experience is accessible and convenient for all guests.

Connecting to Brands Our Customers Crave

Another benefit of Pilot’s restaurant technology enhancements is the ability to connect guests directly to the restaurant brands they know and trust.

We’ve partnered with Wendy’s, Arby’s and Subway to install their preferred ordering technology platforms at our travel centers, bringing the brands’ digital ordering experience to Pilot guests. This includes mobile ordering capabilities, loyalty program participation and access to brand promotions and offers where available.

For guests, that means having the reward points, digital deals and familiar ordering experiences they’re used to when using the restaurants’ apps or websites.

Supporting Mobile Ordering and Delivery

Guests can also order from participating Wendy’s, Arby’s, and Subway locations at Pilot travel centers through select third-party delivery services, creating even more convenience and flexibility.

This allows guests to order from participating restaurant locations at Pilot travel centers through their preferred delivery apps, giving them another way to enjoy their favorite meals.

Investing in the Future of Quick-Service Dining

At Pilot, innovation is about more than introducing new technology. It’s about creating exceptional experiences by making every stop easier and more rewarding for our guests.

As we continue to modernize restaurant operations across our network, guests can expect to see more convenience, enhanced personalization and ordering options across our fast-food restaurants as we connect them with the brands, rewards and digital experiences they already enjoy.

It’s one more way Pilot is by your side for the whole ride.

Giving Back from Day One

We believe in working shoulder-to-shoulder with the communities we serve. Through Pilot’s giving program, Miles of Good, we have championed education by donating to hundreds of public schools across North America.

To celebrate the new store grand openings, Pilot is donating $20,000 to each community to support education. Chicopee Public Schools, serving students in Chicopee, MA, and the Holmes District School Board, serving Ponce de Leon, FL students, each received a $20,000 check to help fund programs and opportunities that fuel students’ futures.

This funding helps ensure students have what they need to inspire curiosity, strengthen learning and create opportunities to help them thrive. By funding public schools, Pilot is proud to support the next generation.

In It with You

These two new store openings are part of our commitment to give you more quality amenities, more convenience and more reasons to take a comfortable break from the road. Whether you’re a professional driver supporting America’s supply chain or a family heading out on an adventure, Pilot is here to be your trusty wingman.

After reviewing thousands of deserving entries, Pilot, the nation’s largest travel center operator and third largest tanker fleet operator in the U.S., announced today their 2025 Road Warrior champion, Stacy Batiste of Lafayette, Louisiana. Batiste was selected for his tireless dedication and commitment to professional driving, receiving the largest prize in contest history – a custom Kenworth truck built by the Diesel Brothers and a $50,000 cash prize. Pilot’s Road Warrior contest is a way for the company to say thanks to the drivers who go the extra mile and keep North America moving. A bonus second-place winner, Bobby Peeker of Woodruff, South Carolina, is also being awarded a $10,000 cash prize and a $25,000 donation on his behalf to a charity supporting veterans’ causes of his choice.  

“We received thousands of entries celebrating the efforts of drivers who go the extra mile each and every day. Stacy’s and Bobby’s hard work, dedication to the profession, commitment to safety and service stood out. We are honored to welcome them to the Road Warrior winner’s circle,” said Jordan Spradling, senior vice president of transportation and midstream assets at Pilot Company. “They both are prime examples of the positive impact professional drivers have on and off the road.”

Batiste has dedicated the past 33 years to being on the road, logging more than 5.1 million accident-free miles and considers trucking to be his calling. Batiste has been recognized throughout his career for his commitment to road safety. A Marine Corps veteran, Batiste is motivated by the pride of knowing his efforts keep communities and families supplied with the goods they need. In addition to his time behind the wheel, he routinely goes the extra mile to mentor younger drivers and serves as a pillar in his local community. 

On October 21, Pilot surprised Batiste with his prize while he was working and on the road. Batiste had stopped at a Flying J in Baytown, Texas, when Pilot and the Diesel Brothers handed over the keys to the custom Kenworth truck and presented the $50,000 check. His family hid in the travel center to be a part of the surprise. They say Batiste’s first job as a professional driver was hauling sugar cane in South Louisiana, and now, as an owner-operator, this truck will further his passion for safe driving and making a difference in his community. 

With the amount of heart-warming stories that were submitted through this year’s Road Warrior nomination process, Pilot selected an additional deserving winner. Bobby Peeker, also a Marine Corps veteran, will receive a $10,000 cash prize and a $25,000 donation made by Pilot on his behalf to a charity of his choice that supports veterans’ causes.  

Peeker boasts more than 1 million accident-free miles and supports the military community following his service in the Marine Corps, regularly volunteering his time and resources to aid his fellow servicemen and servicewomen. He also participates in truck shows that support the Special Olympics. His family instilled his passion for the profession, which was only strengthened by the role his grandfather played to help remove rubble from the 9/11 attacks with his truck. 

For over 10 years, Pilot has celebrated professional drivers and recognized them as Road Warriors for their dedication to going the extra mile.

As North America’s largest travel center network and the originator of National Road Trip Day, Pilot is revving up for the start of summer with limited-time offerings, the ultimate road trip giveaway and travel trends. Pilot teamed up with Campspot, the leading booking platform for campgrounds, RV parks and glamping resorts, to survey nearly 2,000 road trippers and reveal one of the biggest trends for this summer: the pop-up escape – a one to three night, flexible, budget-friendly getaway*.

“National Road Trip Day marks the official start of summer travel and is an invitation for drivers to pack up, fuel up and enjoy the freedom and excitement of the open road,” said Adrienne Ingoldt, chief marketing officer at Pilot. “This summer, many travelers are fully embracing pop-up escapes, transforming road trips into unforgettable journeys. Whether you’re seeking the beauty of wide-open spaces or just exploring a roadside hidden gem, Pilot is out here to fuel your journey with everything you need to make the most of your miles.”

Key findings from the 2025 Campspot x Pilot Summer Travel Survey:

• Short trips, big impact: 53% of travelers surveyed are planning more short trips or weekend getaways than in previous years, with more than 90% gearing up for pop-up escapes this summer—quick trips typically within driving distance of home.
• Experience over agenda: 66% of travelers say the best part of a road trip is discovering hidden gems, while 62% enjoy making memories with family or friends and 61% love soaking in the scenic views.
• Road trip priorities: 84% say they most value the convenience of fuel, food and restrooms in one stop. The perfect playlist (56%) and meaningful conversations (54%) also top the list of road trip essentials.
• Snack strategy: More than half (57%) of travelers crave a mix of everything, opting for the perfect portable treat of salty and sweet to elevate the journey.
• The (nearby) great escape: 58% of travelers are heading to lakes or beaches this summer, followed by mountains or national parks (51%) and charming small towns (48%), with 57% of travelers saying they’ll travel 200 miles or less to get to their destination.

“Travelers are rewriting the rules of summer getaways by choosing closer escapes, simpler plans and spontaneous moments that bring genuine connection,” said Jeff Bettin, general manager, Marketplace at Campspot. “Pop-up escapes show that it doesn’t take a faraway destination or a long itinerary to create something unforgettable. That’s why Campspot and Pilot are making it easier to discover the perfect place to stay, hit the road and experience the kind of escape that travelers need most this summer.”

Murdo, South Dakota – Pilot Travel Center

This location has road trip essentials at your fingertips, three new self-check outs and a newly remodeled Subway. Don’t forget to grab a cup of the best coffee on the interstate – a perfect companion for your travels.

For over 65 years, Pilot has been a trusted companion to millions of travelers across North America. Building on this legacy, the company’s first-ever chief marketing officer, Adrienne Ingoldt, is leading the charge to make Pilot an iconic brand and the travel center of choice for all who love the open road.

“It’s the people and the moments along the way that make being on the road so much more than just traveling from point A to B,” Ingoldt explains. “We’ve found that people who choose to drive – wherever their journey takes them – have a shared desire to embrace all the possibilities along the way. Pilot is out here to fuel them up, fill them up and lift them up.”

To develop this campaign, Pilot spoke to all types of drivers to better understand the community it serves. These conversations revealed an essential truth: out on the road, like in life, it’s about the journey and what you make of it, not just the destination. Drivers of all kinds answer the call of the road because it puts them in the driver’s seat of life, where they feel alive and free.

This campaign is the first to showcase Pilot’s refreshed brand identity which includes a fresh, bold style with a new, modern logo, a more vibrant color palette and a relatable, witty brand voice. With its updated brand aesthetic and welcoming call to, ‘See You Out Here,’ Pilot invites everyone to create miles of memories along the way. The new brand comes to life through broadcast television in five key markets across the U.S., nationwide billboards, social media, radio ads and more.

The hero of the campaign is a 30-second television commercial that turns up the volume on everybody’s favorite road trip anthem, Tom Cochrane's "Life is a Highway,” and features everyday people, all kinds of drivers moving to the rhythm of the road. The ad is currently airing on major networks and streaming on connected TV platforms. The new brand elements and motto of “See You Out Here” will continue across the company’s owned channels and in key moments throughout the year.

“Everyone who’s ever hand-surfed out the window or belted out an epic car power ballad knows the middle of nowhere can be the greatest somewhere,” added Ingoldt. “Our brand is how we show up for drivers – whether it’s in the middle of a rigorous multi-day haul or an epic road trip, we get them and have just what they need to keep that upbeat feeling rolling. See you out here!”

Road Trip Ahead

People are ready to put the pandemic behind them and make up for all those missed vacations. According to The Vacationer, 80 percent of Americans are going to take a road trip this summer.

When planning your summer vacation, we’d agree that hitting the road is the way to go. After all, half the fun is how you get there!

Wherever you’re heading, look for Pilot Flying J to be your ultimate stop with spacious and clean restrooms, an abundance of full-size snacks and drinks, and friendly team members to help you stock up on road trip essentials.
