Commitment to Safety

A message from Julia Takeda, Fly Louie’s Founder and CEO

Fly Louie was started in 2017 with the goal of matching under-utilized private aircraft with destinations and travelers in need of more air service. Evolving into Fly Louie Charter and the Fly Louie Alliance in 2019, we now directly serve both charter passengers and Alliance operators.

Since day one, Fly Louie has been a safety-first organization and our commitment to safety remains paramount. Now serving two very different audiences, we’ve taken into account the nuances and specific needs of each. We hold ourselves and the larger Fly Louie network to the highest safety standards and continuously challenge ourselves to support and serve our growing community.

Charter Safety Commitment

You think very carefully about whom you choose to fly your family and friends, and the Fly Louie promise to you is that we take that responsibility seriously. Our experienced team works closely with the operators to whom we refer charter trips and our charter team has 20+ years of experience. We don’t put any customer on an aircraft that we wouldn’t fly ourselves.

The aircraft options we offer follow the industry’s top safety standards. Fly Louie’s commitment to maintaining strict operator safety and performance history standards goes above and beyond those required by the FAA. Fly Louie charters trips exclusively from operators that have met the Aviation Research Group (ARG/US) standards, a leading independent provider of third-party safety analysis for the general aviation industry, or Wyvern, another independent safety organization for general aviation. Both firms monitor pilot qualifications, safety records, aircraft certification, and aircraft insurance for thousands of aircraft and pilots. This ensures we are providing our customers with qualified aircraft and pilots every time.

Fly Louie maintains the following safety criteria:

  • Operators complete the Fly Louie Vendor Audit Standards Agreement

  • All flights are operated with 2 pilots

  • Assigned pilots are reviewed by ARG/US Trip Cheq or Wyvern Pass Report

  • Operators provide flight following reports

We are so proud of Fly Louie’s perfect safety record (and our exceptional customer satisfaction). We look forward to welcoming you aboard!

Alliance Safety Commitment

The Fly Louie Alliance is a network of experienced and committed operators who value access to top resources to run their businesses safely, efficiently, and effectively. Fly Louie supports operators throughout the lifecycle of their businesses by leveraging the power of scale. Safety is a crucial pillar of Alliance operators’ organizations and a growing segment of the Alliance offering.

Fly Louie is committed to providing support to Alliance operators and their continuous effort to expand their safety programs. As a proud member of the Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF), we are excited to help further the ACSF’s mission as operators expand their safety infrastructure and comply with upcoming regulations from the FAA.

Thank you for trusting Fly Louie. Safe travels!
