Scott Kerr sits down with Uma Subramanian, CEO of Aero, which is a newly launched luxury semi-private air travel service from Uber co-founder Garrett Camp. Subramanian, an aerospace engineer veteran, discusses the gap Aero fills between private aviation and flying on a luxurious commercial airline, why she thinks Aero is the "perfect solution for the post-COVID world," and how discovering the way people book air travel made Aero rethink its mobile app strategy. She also talks about building the Aero brand from scratch, creating "talk-worthiness" experiences around its services, and the company's green solutions in a non eco-friendly industry. Plus: Why Aero's planes are painted completely in black
