Details: Founded by Jesse Neugarten in 2018, Dollar Flight Club is an email subscription service that helps travelers save time and money on their next adventure. In 2021, the company expanded from its core subscription product into the newsletter space to help travelers navigate travel during the pandemic. Since then, the company has launched three newsletters and will add two more niche travel products and online published content by the end of 2022.

Current brands:

  • The Navigator: A five-minute trip through the news that matters most to travelers. This free daily newsletter brings you the top news stories to help you stay informed on what's happening in the world.?
  • Next Stop: Once weekly destination travel guides delivered to your inbox for free. This weekly newsletter gives a quick yet deep dive into amazing, unique, and trending destinations all around the world.?
  • Room Service: Discover the world’s best places to stay with the Room Service newsletter. Covering the world’s best hotels and top resorts, our once-weekly newsletter gives you the latest on hotel openings, loyalty programs, trending destinations, and more. Get all you need to plan the perfect stay for your next getaway.
  • Dollar Flight Club: Save up to $500 on your next adventure. We'll find the cheapest flights to your favorite places and send a free email alert right to your inbox.

What's next: The company just launched its newest brand "Room Service," a weekly newsletter highlighting the world's best stays and latest news in the hotel, resort, and Airbnb space. While the company's main revenue driver has been subscription revenue from its Dollar Flight Club product, the recent brand expansion has laid the groundwork for substantial advertising revenue with native ads within its newsletters.?

Most of the DFC advertising partners are DTC, CPG, SaaS, and general product and service brands looking to reach their US-based, college-educated, high-earner, and high-spender audiences. Brands like Masterworks, Outer, Babbel, Brooklinen, and more are finding success by tapping into DFC’s highly engaged audience with native advertisement placements.

Kyle Maltz , COO & Partner: “ In a world dominated by noise and distraction, it’s a huge ask to have customers come back to your website over and over again just to get what they need from your brand. Because of that, we’ve chosen to focus on business models that meet customers exactly where they spend most of their time — their inboxes. Since day one, DFC has been committed to pushing out valuable and entertaining content directly to travelers once they raise their hand and say “This is exactly what’s important to me.”

Despite the pandemic wreaking havoc on the travel industry, the DFC family of brands found a massive opportunity to grow faster while providing customers with even more value. For subscription products like Dollar Flight Club, the crisis served as an opportunity to invest in the future.
