We've hit $95K! Meet some of our advisors
We've reached $95K!
We keep growing each week. Happy to have all of you on board with us! Here's a few more amazing reviews from the past week.
Subscription businesses are the best business model due to consistent revenues and simplicity for customers. I think SkyHi will be able to take this model and make it a big hit!
I believe this is a much needed product as I have wasted so much time with online fare comparisons and booking of flights. This flat rate based on air miles traveled is extremely appealing to me.
I believe in affordable simple travel solutions. I want to support a business that allows people to create memories by having experiences.

Meet SkyHi Advisors, Kevin Knight and Wayne Chang
When we first decided to create SkyHi, we knew that surrounding ourselves with knowledge and talent in the industry would be a major factor to our success. Since inception, we have introduced new advisors to the SkyHi family with backgrounds in aviation, business, entrepreneurship, and scaling businesses. They have decades of combined professional experience, and a few large exits under their belts. Here are a couple of the talented people that helped SkyHi take off.
