New York, NY: Fly Louie, a fast-growing private aviation startup, is the latest business to enroll in the WYVERN Membership program. In addition to popular fuel and crew travel savings programs, the Fly Louie Alliance offers enrolled independent charter operators supplemental charter sales support and expertise. As Fly Louie looks to scale their revenue generating activities on behalf of Alliance members, the WYVERN data platform, Aviation Compliance Enhancement System (ACES), is an important addition to Fly Louie’s suite of tools.
Using the WYVERN ACES platform, Fly Louie can provide private charter operators enrolled in the Fly Louie Alliance with a Pilot & Aircraft Safety Survey (PASS) report which verifies that the operator, aircraft, and crew meet the global benchmark in safety, The Wingman Standard. ACES also enables users to establish custom safety analysis reports to meet their needs. According to CEO and Founder Julia Takeda, “We are excited to add WYVERN to the tools and technologies that we’re adding to our growing charter sales capabilities. Combined with some of the best charter sales talent in the industry, Fly Louie is well-equipped to bring incremental charter profits to the more than 2,500 aircraft enrolled in the Alliance.”
“We are proud to partner with Fly Louie. Our tools will enable Fly Louie to access the data needed to research operators that have demonstrated commitment to safe operating practices and provide their clients with verification that each trip meets WYVERN’s safety standards with the PASS program,” says Patti Arnott, Senior Director of Memberships & Admin.
WYVERN uses state-of-the-art technology and hands-on data mining to obtain accurate real-time data, which includes training documents, crew currency, insurance levels, maintenance training, and additional relevant information. Thousands of data points are reviewed both manually and within the system every day.

About Fly Louie
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. In less than a year, the Alliance has the largest fleet cooperative in America with a robust membership of 250+ operators that own 2,500+ aircraft. With the agility of a start-up and the strength of scale, Fly Louie works with leading private aviation businesses to deliver cost savings and revenue generating opportunities to help them to better compete against the larger players in aviation.
Together with Alliance members and preferred partners and FBOs, Fly Louie is charting a new course for private air travel and bringing success to the industry for years to come.
