Connecting the dots in private air travel

Fly Louie launched in 2017 with the goal of matching underutilized aircraft with destinations and travelers in need of more air service. For 1.5 years, the team worked closely with independent operators and FBO partners to test private air shuttle routes. It was apparent from that experience that a bigger opportunity existed. Fly Louie resolved to convert their valuable expertise and relationships into a product that could benefit the independent private aviation industry at scale.

In September 2019, Fly Louie established the Fly Louie Alliance, a network of independent charter operators and Preferred FBO and Vendor partners. The Alliance has now become the largest fleet cooperative in America with a robust membership of 300+ operators that own 3,100+ aircraft. With the agility of a start-up and the strength of scale, Fly Louie works with leading private aviation businesses to deliver massive cost savings and fleet efficiencies, so that independent operators can continue to power a thriving aviation industry.

In June 2023, Fly Louie introduced Alliance Pro, a new membership tier including first of their kind savings programs, valued at $10,000 and tailored to independent Part 135 operators. 

Together with Alliance members, preferred partners, and FBOs, Fly Louie is charting a new course for private air travel and helping independent charter operators to power a thriving business aviation industry for years to come.
