FlyIndigo
About the Company
FlyIndigo Corporation was founded in 2001 to explore new venues of transportation to satisfy the challenges of business travelers. Challenges compounded by limited commercial air options between critical business hubs. After several years of studies and analysis, FlyIndigo expanded in developing a 4th tier aviation capability between the cities of the bay area and the Sacramento and central California valley. The company is in the process of launching the first on-demand, per-set air taxi services using advance SR-22 G3 aircraft. We are focused to provide the safest and affordable air travel service in the nation.
