Skift, which covers the travel and restaurant industries, has acquired Airline Weekly, including its subscription-based newsletter, for an undisclosed amount.

Airline Weekly, launched in 2004 by Jay Shabat, Seth Kaplan and Jason Cottrell, is read by airline CEOs and senior executives worldwide and covers the ins and outs of the airline business.

The Airline Weekly subscription newsletter will remain a separate brand within the Skift family, led by the same editorial team.

Skift, which launched in 2012, produces the Airline Innovation Report newsletter led by Brian Sumers, its senior aviation business editor.

“With Airline Weekly, the Airline Innovation Report, and our global forums, Skift now offers the strongest business coverage of commercial aviation in the world,” said Skift CEO Rafat Ali in a statement.
