Wing 🪽
🪽 (U+1FABD) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Wing is part of the Symbols family (block: Symbols and Pictographs Extended-A). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: The WING emoji depicts a wing. It can show progress or speed in messages, such as signaling quick actions, flight, or movement toward a goal. It also works to represent travel, aviation, or a sense of ascent in planning updates or stories. Finally, it can symbolize freedom, aspiration, or a hopeful mood in conversations about dreams or opportunities. Remember that appearance varies by platform and font, so color, style, and detail may differ. Use the emoji thoughtfully in UI and text, and keep intent clear to avoid ambiguity in formal content. If a platform lacks color emoji, a monochrome or text‑style fallback may appear. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning and is readable by assistive technologies.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1FABD
in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.

Compatibility & troubleshooting
Font support: if the symbol does not render, the current font likely lacks this codepoint. Choose a font with broad Unicode coverage or allow a fallback font.
Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
