We are aviation geeks and data nerds solving aviation's hardest problems

Power to the people

Flight disruptions don't just affect the person in the seat. They ripple — to the executive assistant rebooking a trip at midnight, the travel manager tracking a hundred travelers at once, the airline operations team managing a cascading delay, the cab driver waiting at arrivals, the family watching the board at the gate. Lumo was built for all of them. We use real-time data and predictive modeling to see disruptions before they happen, giving every part of the travel ecosystem — from individual travelers to global airlines — the clarity to make smarter decisions. Trusted by aviation leaders worldwide and now available to every traveler, we're on a mission to make every journey a little smoother for everyone it touches.
