Pride Air Group is an LGBTQ-owned travel company based in Aurora, Colorado, positioning itself as the first airline owned and operated by and for the LGBTQ+ community. The company was founded in 2019 by Dan Braun, whose aviation background began at 16 with the Civil Air Patrol. Pride Air Group’s stated focus is connecting LGBTQ+ travelers to community events, Pride celebrations, and destinations across the United States and beyond, with a passenger experience built specifically for queer travelers rather than retrofitted from a general-market product. Sustainability is part of the brand’s long-term plan. As an LGBTQ-owned member of the Colorado LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce, Pride Air Group serves the LGBTQ+ business community in Aurora and nationally.
