When we launched FLY4 Airlines in March 2024, we knew our journey would be ambitious. Eight months later, we can confidently say that our strategic vision has transformed into operational reality.
Our inaugural summer season has been a testament to strategic vision and operational excellence. In just eight months, FLY4 Airlines has transformed from a concept to a significant player in European aviation, weaving an impressive narrative of growth and achievement.
Flying by the numbers
Our operational landscape spans an impressive 23 European countries, where we’ve successfully completed 2,236 flight sectors. These aren’t just numbers – they represent connections, opportunities, and the trust placed in us to fly over 382,000 of our customers’ passengers this summer.
Our performance metrics tell a compelling story of efficiency and reliability. Achieving a remarkable 94% load factor across our four Boeing 737-800 aircraft demonstrates our ability to optimise every flight. We’ve also accumulated 7,885 block hours, each representing precision, planning, and professional execution.
A swift and strategic ascent
Behind these statistics lies a strategic journey that began in June 2023. By March 2024, we had secured our Air Operator Certificate and Air Carrier Operating License from the Irish Aviation Authority. Our subsequent UK CAA Third Country Operator approval in April 2024 opened crucial operational corridors from Birmingham and East Midlands airports.
Performance that speaks volumes
Numbers tell a compelling story, and ours are impressive. We achieved a 94% load factor while accumulating 7,885 block hours – a testament to our commitment to efficiency and reliability. Our fleet of modern Boeing 737-800 aircraft have been instrumental in delivering flexible and dependable services.
Beyond just flying: Building partnerships
Our ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) services have been particularly noteworthy. We’ve already established partnerships with six ACMI customers, in addition to three charter brokers, demonstrating our versatility in meeting diverse operational needs.
Whether it’s supporting businesses during seasonal surges, bridging gaps in aircraft deliveries, or helping organisations expand into new markets, we’re more than just an airline. We’re a strategic partner committed to solving complex aviation challenges.
Our people: The real difference
Behind every successful flight are dedicated professionals who are passionate about what they do. Our ground staff and crews have maintained exceptional standards, ensuring each journey is not just a flight, but an experience of operational excellence.
Looking ahead
This summer has been more than a season of flights – it’s been a statement of intent. We’re not just entering the market; we’re reshaping expectations of what an agile, modern airline can achieve.
Our journey has only just begun, and the sky is not the limit – it’s our playground.
