This summer, forget about stressing at the airport! SKYSQUAD is now available at Dulles and Reagan Airport in the DC area to help families travel with ease and enjoy their journey. This summer, SkySquad will expand to offer services at BWI and FLL as well! SkySquad can also be found at Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Airport.

Founder Julie Melnick says, “SkySquad is designed to make air travel easier than ever before. Until now, most airport assistance has been reserved for VIPs. SkySquad wants to change that. We are on a mission to improve the airport experience for all; at an affordable price that is accessible for everyone.”

What is SkySquad? SkySquad is a platform which matches travelers with a badged and background checked airport assistant.  Traveling has never been easier with a friendly face to meet customers at their car door and help them through security and to the gate. Service is also available for layovers and arrivals. Packages such as “Jetsetter, Globetrotter, Halftime Help, and Welcome Crew” are designed to cater to the everyday traveler. Although customers feel like VIPS; prices start at $49.

Skysquad has had the pleasure of helping many families, including those moving overseas and domestically, as well as those traveling with pets and health issues. Many SkySquad customers are senior parents visiting family, and SkySquad services as a support to greet them upon arrival so that they don’t have to navigate an unfamiliar airport alone.

“Where has this company been all my life?  Airports are the worst. These guys make it better. We used them for an international departure and our assistant saved the trip by helping us at the ticketing counter, “ said Brandon Ross, a SkySquad customer.
