FLOAT Shuttle that means Fly Over All Traffic is a Californian start-up commuter airline based in Pomona. The airline was founded by Arnel Guiang, Tom Hsieh, and Rob McKinney. The company offers a subscription service allowing customers to travel on daily flights between various general aviation airports in the Los Angeles area.[2]

Flights are planned to be operated by Southern Airways Express with Cessna Grand Caravan aircraft in a 9-passenger configuration.[3] In August 2020 FLOAT completed the purchase of the remaining assets of Ravn Alaska, which declared bankruptcy earlier in the year.[4]
