Providing a safe and first-rate airline service depends heavily on supe- rior quality aircraft components delivered as and when we need them.” He went on to say, “In the face of COVID-19, many airlines face serious challenges, but we feel confident knowing that with Proponent we will be fully equipped and supported to succeed and thrive through these times.” Allen Airlines was founded in January 2019 by Joe S.T. Wang as a modern and personalized means of travel. Allen Air- lines has established facilities at John F. Kennedy International Airport (New York, US) with the first long haul flight route going from New York to Hong Kong. Al- len Airlines also plans on providing short haul flights within Asia.

Jeff Nixon, COO at Proponent, said: “We are thrilled to have Allen Airlines as a new customer of Proponent and are privileged to be able to meet their service needs and be a part of their prosperous journey into the aviation industry.” Through this partnership, Darkfeed will supply actionable intelligence to help organizations accel- erate and automate decision-making with unparalleled confidence and efficiency.
