FLYLA GmbH

FLYLA GmbH is a travel technology company focused on offering discounted flight options for students. By partnering with various airlines, it aims to make air travel more affordable and accessible to its target audience. Founded in 2018 in Munich, Germany, FLYLA GmbH specializes in student travel services. The company was co-founded by Fabian Hoehne and Frederic Lapatschek, with Fabian Hoehne also serving as the CEO.

FLYLA has completed a single funding round in May 2019, raising an undisclosed amount from individual investors. FLYLA specializes in providing discounted flight options specifically tailored for students, leveraging partnerships with various airlines including Eurowings, ITA Airways, Loganair, and LOT Polish Airlines. Their primary offering, the Flyla Deals Calendar, presents a daily updated selection of flight deals available for the next 14 days, categorized by airlines and origin cities. This innovative platform addresses the unique travel needs of students by making air travel more accessible and affordable, thus allowing them to visit family, attend university, or explore new destinations without financial strain.

Flyla serves a diverse clientele, primarily targeting students across Europe and potentially expanding into other international markets. The end users of Flyla's services range from local students in countries like Germany and the UK to international students seeking travel deals that accommodate their budget constraints. FLYLA generates revenue through its flight booking services, primarily focusing on discounted fares for students. The transactional structure involves direct-to-consumer sales where students can access flight options and make bookings through the Flyla platform.

The company may also engage in partnerships with airlines to offer specialized fares and benefits, enhancing its value proposition. Pricing models are designed to be competitive, allowing for significant savings on standard fares. Revenue is primarily derived from commissions on bookings made through the platform, thereby aligning the company's financial interests with customer satisfaction and travel affordability. FLYLA GmbH plans to leverage its recent funding round from May 2019 to enhance its platform and develop new products aimed at the student market.

The company is looking to expand its services beyond Europe into international markets, targeting regions such as North America and Asia by 2025. The funding will be utilized to improve technology infrastructure, enabling better user experience and access to more flight deals.
