History

In November 2009 CEO Jeffrey Stern along with executive directors visited Guam looking for business opportunities in Micronesia. Upon finding a niche market between Guam and Asia they began the process of creating the new company. A year later, November 2010, Fly Micronesia LLC d.b.a. Fly Guam[3] was registered on Guam.
