Public Profile

Describing themselves as in stealth-mode, Odys Aviation Inc (formerly Craft Aero) is also referenced as an advanced aircraft startup structured around optimizing the human experience of air travel, while putting the industry on a path to electrification and sustainability. Odys Aviation is discussed as working on advanced aircraft for short-haul regional operators. With a focus on regional travel - described by management as ready for a technology-enabled reset - current issues relate to limited direct routes, overburdened airports, and wasted time on the ground. Suggesting their approach is to make all these disadvantages as potentially a thing of the past with aircraft under development cutting door-to-door time in half while also being more profitable for the airline to operate.
