Flewber's app takes off with first booking
With difficulty finding a charter through traditional means and limited commercial flights, clients are turning to Flewber. The mobile application is easy to set up and use, taking only one minute from download to booking.

Flewber Global is celebrating the first completed flight booked through its new mobile application, which launched in September 2021. The first passenger was a Bitcoin miner with a facility in upstate New York.

He needed to schedule a last-minute flight for a meeting and site inspection but had difficulty finding a flight through private charter services and limited commercial flights. Then, he found Flewber. He says it was the only platform that offered the round trip flight he needed at such short notice.

The passenger adds that Flewber's mobile application was easy to set up and use, taking only one minute from download to book his flight. The flight was performed by Flewber's wholly-owned operator; the platform will also serve to connect passengers with a broader network of Part 135 operators, expanding the available routes throughout the region.

“This is the precise experience we were hoping to create when we first started Flewber, so it's great to see it play out in the inaugural flight,” says Marc Sellouk, founder and CEO of Flewber. “This platform has the power to connect travellers with the exact route they need, the moment they need it. Between our own fleet of aircraft and our partner network of certified Part 135 operators, regional routes throughout the greater northeast are just a swipe away.”
