Flyte Named Official Air Travel Partner of Hamptons International Film Festival 2026

FORT MILL, S.C., Sept. 28, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Flyte, a subsidiary of Catheter Precision, Inc., has announced a significant partnership with the Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) as the "Official Air Travel Partner" for the 34th annual event, which will take place from October 2 to October 12, 2026. This partnership marks an expansion of Flyte’s presence across entertainment, fashion, hospitality, sports, and premium destination travel.

Flyte’s involvement in the festival will be extensive, with the company’s brand prominently featured throughout the eleven-day event. The festival, founded in 1992 to celebrate the art of film and introduce audiences to a diverse spectrum of international films and filmmakers, will benefit from Flyte’s technology-enabled private aviation platform. The company operates a standardized fleet of Cirrus Vision Jets, providing efficient private air travel between the New York metro area and the East End.

As part of the partnership, Flyte will sponsor several marquee programs at the festival. Notably, the company will be a sponsor of the World Cinema Narrative, a large narrative section featuring international films such as "Coward," "Minotaur," and "Tender Loving Care." Additionally, Flyte will sponsor the 2026 Flyte Breakthrough Awards, which have a history of recognizing emerging talent that has gone on to become prominent figures in film and entertainment. The 2026 Flyte Breakthrough Award recipients include Anthony Ippolito, Rosalind Eleazar, and Jordan Firstman.

Anthony Ippolito will receive a Flyte Breakthrough Performer Award in connection with "I Play Rocky," the festival’s Opening Night film. Ippolito portrays Sylvester Stallone in the upcoming Amazon MGM Studios film. Rosalind Eleazar will receive a similar award for her performance in "Misty Green," written and directed by Chris Rock. Jordan Firstman will receive the Flyte Breakthrough Director Award for "Club Kid," an A24 release that he wrote, directed, and starred in. The Breakthrough program has a history of recognizing talent such as Emma Stone, Mahershala Ali, Jessica Chastain, Lupita Nyong’o, Adam Driver, Brie Larson, Timothée Chalamet, Michael B. Jordan, Oscar Isaac, and Emily Blunt.

Flyte’s presence at the festival is seen as a natural extension of its growing presence in the Hamptons.

The partnership with HIFF is part of Flyte’s broader strategy to expand its presence in the entertainment and travel sectors. Through its direct-to-consumer booking platform, standardized pricing on select routes, and strategic partnerships, Flyte is delivering a faster, safer, and more convenient private aviation experience. The company’s FAA-certified Part 135 operating subsidiary, Ponderosa Air, LLC, further enhances its capabilities in providing premium air travel services.
