FlyRuby helps user find available private jet flights. The application goes beyond a simple airfare search. It operates based on an artificial intelligence scheduling technology developed by Dr. Stephen Smith. Development of this technology was Dr. Smith’s contribution to a $95 million DARPA/Rome Laboratory Planning Initiative. The user only has to submit their trip details and FlyRuby gives them a list of available jets. The user can select and purchase their flight all through FlyRuby. The website allows the user to make itinerary changes and manage travel for their trip.

FlyRuby was founded in 2011 by CEO Michael Leek. Leek had a good idea, but needed assistance to get it off the ground. With the help and technological developments of Dr. Smith (who is also the company CTO), they were able to get things started. The founding of the application was secured through an exclusive license provided by the Carnegie Mellon University.

FlyRuby utilizes sophisticated artificial intelligence to help users find the perfect private jet. This gives professionals and businesses a convenient resource when planning company travel. The application gives the user a great deal of insight into their trip and flight and provides them with the tools to reserve the flight or make changes if necessary.

The FlyRuby website has a very calm, elegant design complimented by the red and black logo which features a stylized humming bird. The upper, right hand corner gives the user five navigational buttons to access various areas on the website. The Fly Now search is as simple as any other airfare search tool.

Anyone can begin searching for available private jet flights on FlyRuby. The application does not require a log in to perform the initial search. Once the user finds a flight they would like to purchase, they can click the white “book your flight” button on the total page. Next, the user can click the “Sign Up” button along the right hand side of the following page. The new account form requires a first and last name (middle initial optional), primary phone number, address, city, state, zip code, username, email address and password. The user can also provide a company name, secondary phone number and fax number but these are optional. After submitting their information, the user is taken to the second part of the form which requires credit card payment information.

FlyRuby offers its services for free. There are no charges for creating an account or searching for flights. Users can actually search as much as they like without logging in. Of course the amount spent on FlyRuby depends entirely on how many flights the user purchases. Private flights can be very expensive, so the user can expect to fork out thousands in most cases.

FlyRuby offers a specialized service to its users. The application is not really intended for casual travelers. Private flights are very expensive so this type of service would be better for a company or organization. The application is very easy to use, so booking the flight takes almost not time at all once one has been located.
