Wilbur is a special character in Animal Crossing: New Horizons who works at the Airport. His name, along with Orville, are likely referencing the Wright Brothers, the inventors of airplanes. Wilbur flies the plane to other people's islands, as well as to the mystery tours (which require Nook Mile Tickets). Notably, he uses the phonetic alphabet when speaking—with the exception of "whiskey" for "W", replaced with "whisker", likely to avoid rating boards' alcohol reference content descriptor.

After the player lands on a random Mystery Island upon using a Nook Miles Ticket, Wilbur waits at the dock until the player is ready to head home or needs tools. The following tools he can give are: Flimsy Axe, Flimsy Shovel, Flimsy Fishing Rod, and Flimsy Net for 100 Nook Miles each. If the player gets knocked out after being attacked by a Tarantula, Scorpion or Wasp if they got stung once, Wilbur will take the player back to the dock and as soon they recover, he will cancel the red alert that he sends a word to Orville and then lets the player continue exploring afterwards.

He does the same thing when the player chooses to visit Harv's Island, but in the month of June during Wedding Season, he has options of letting the player mail or sell things and can make arrangements the following next day. This does not apply to Mystery Island tours.
