FlyUSA, a premier private aviation solutions provider and one of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S., announces the acquisition of TRYP Air Charter and its affiliated company, MySky Aviation Solutions. This expansion brings FlyUSA’s total aircraft under management from 24 to 28. The transaction also expands FlyUSA’s on-fleet aircraft available for charter from eight to a total of 12, a 50% increase in its charter fleet. Under this transition, FlyUSA is fully committed to ensuring that it is seamless for all clients, partners and staff.
“We’ve known the TRYP team since we first started FlyUSA and they’ve been a great partner to work with, we are all excited about joining forces,” said Barry Shevlin, Co-Founder and CEO of FlyUSA. “This transaction results in FlyUSA becoming the largest and most active combined turboprop and light jet fleet in the state of Florida, if not the broader Southeast U.S. This partnership unlocks new opportunities for growth, but most importantly, delivers even greater value to those we serve. I could not be more excited having these two organizations join FlyUSA.”

Kyle Garren, TRYP’s VP of Charter/Logistics, will also join FlyUSA, boosting support and resources for the sales team.
“TRYP and MySky have always been a leading source of Pilatus PC-12 lift throughout the Southeast and the Bahamas,” Elliot Mintzer, Founder and CEO of MySky and TRYP, commented. “The innovative growth opportunities at FlyUSA for our owners and team is something we couldn’t pass up being a part of or be more excited about,” Mintzer added.
