Wheels Up
Wheels Up Experience Inc. (NYSE: UP) is a leading on-demand private aviation provider in the U.S., offering charter and membership programs, commercial travel benefits through a strategic partnership with Delta Air Lines, and cargo services. Founded in 2013 by Kenny Dichter, Wheels Up was rescued from potential bankruptcy in September 2023 when a Delta Air Lines-led consortium (Delta, Certares, Knighthead, Cox) closed a $500M financing package and took a ~95% controlling equity stake. In November 2024 the company acquired the Embraer Phenom 300/300E fleet of GrandView Aviation ($105M) and secured $332M in equipment financing from Bank of America as part of a multi-year fleet modernization toward two core aircraft types (Phenom 300 series and Challenger 300/350). In 2025 it launched a new Signature membership portfolio and an industry-first integrated self-booking of Delta commercial flights inside the Wheels Up members app. Wheels Up does not publish a public developer API — its booking surface is a members-only mobile app and members.wheelsup.com web portal, with B2B operator connectivity historically routed through its acquired Avianis platform (2019).
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
API Evangelist profiles Wheels Up the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Wheels Up scores 7.4/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
