About Us
Hi, I'm Megan Bladow, the heart behind Travel Air America. My love for travel runs deep—by the time my daughter was 6-months old, she had already explored six countries with me! When work tied me down after taking over our family business, my husband suggested we buy a plane and learn to fly ourselves. That decision changed everything. Suddenly, we could soar to new destinations, enjoying breathtaking views and making memories. This passion for aviation led us to sell our business and reach for the skies, founding Travel Air America. I earned my jet pilot ratings in record time, and with our incredible team—including a Chief Pilot with 35 years at American Airlines, a Director of Operations with military flight expertise, and a Director of Maintenance with decades of experience—we’re here to make your travels extraordinary. Our YouTube channel, loved by millions, shares our adventures, and now we invite you to experience the same joy and luxury with us. At Travel Air America, we’re not just about flights; we’re about creating unforgettable journeys together.
At Travel Air America, we’re more than just a team—we’re a family of aviation enthusiasts dedicated to making your travels unforgettable. I want to take a moment to thank our incredible staff—their hard work, expertise, and dedication ensure every flight is safe, smooth, and enjoyable. And to our great customers , a heartfelt thank you for choosing us and trusting us with your journeys—you’re the reason we soar higher every day.
