Surf Air Has Acquired Blackbird

Brands To Be Integrated Through The Course Of The Year

Surf Air has acquired BlackBird, a fast-growing aviation marketplace in California that has substantially changed how consumers book, buy, and share charter flights.

Surf Air says that with this acquisition, it is continuing to deliver on its mission to create a new category of short-haul air travel.

"By combining Surf Air’s scheduled service, membership model, and focus on a premium travel experience with BlackBird’s proprietary charter marketplace technology, it’s our goal to offer a broad range of flight options at more affordable prices." said Sudhin Shahani, CEO & Chairman of Surf Air. "In this way, we’re going to completely transform 50-400 mile trips by offering a combination of scheduled, on-demand, and shared on-demand charter flights.

"We will be integrating the brands over the course of 2020 to bring increased value to our combined member base with the goal of ultimately creating the world’s largest short-haul premium air travel network," Shahani said.
