History


LIFT was established in October 2020 and commenced operations on December 10, 2020. LIFT is a joint venture between former Kulula.com CEO Gidon Novick, former Uber executive Jonathan Ayache, and aircraft leasing company Global Aviation,[3] a South African-based ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) specialist operating a mixed fleet of Airbus A320 & A340 aircraft. Other founder investors include entrepreneurs, Rael Levitt[4] and Alon Apteker [5]

The name, LIFT was selected after the public were invited to name the airline in a social media campaign.[6][7][8] LIFT Airline was selected after being submitted by eight contestants, who agreed to share the main prize of free flights for a year.[9] Their names are inscribed on the body of the first aircraft that took to the air. The airline's new name was revealed on October 29, 2020.[10][11][12]
