Duetto Buys Flyr Hospitality as Airline Tech Firm Exits

The hotel revenue management software sector has seen a major shakeup as Duetto, backed by private equity firm GrowthCurve Capital, announced the acquisition of Flyr Hospitality, the hotel pricing and business intelligence division of airline-technology company Flyr.

This move comes four years after Flyr first entered the hospitality space through its September 2022 acquisition of startup Pace Revenue, which had over 1,000 hotel clients at the time. Flyr Hospitality has since grown to serve more than 2,300 properties, primarily independent hotels and small chains, including notable brands like Ennismore and Global Hotel Alliance.

The divestment follows a two-week period of internal leadership changes at Flyr, which included the resignation of founder and CEO Alex Mans and WestCap partner Kevin Marcus stepping in as interim chief executive. Sam Chamberlain, Flyr's chief product officer, stated that the unit would progress further under a team dedicated entirely to hospitality.

For Duetto, this acquisition is its third in less than three years, following Micerate in February 2024 and HotStats in April 2025. The company plans to sell Flyr's fully automated pricing engine alongside its own machine-learning products, allowing hotels to choose between hands-on control and automated pricing models.
