FlyUS logo in GTA IV

FlyUS is an airline prominently featured in the Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.

Description

With offices based at Francis International Airport (FIA) in Dukes, Liberty City, FlyUS' presense at FIA is very evident in GTA IV with the appearances of service vehicles bearing the FlyUS name, including airport transit variants of the Feroci and Perennial, as well as the Ripley pushback and Airtug light tug.

The FlyUS fleet includes a number of Boeing 747 jumbo jets, as well as Shamal-like commuter aircraft, which can be found parked around FIA. FlyUS jumbo jets may also be seen roaming around FIA's runways, as well as being airborne, circling the whole of Liberty City (interestingly, these planes constantly extend their landing gears despite never landing).

The airline's livery is similar to liveries of the previous generation United Airlines, and its name is seemingly a nod to airlines that adopt the "United States" abbreviation in their name, such as US Airways. The name may be a pun of "flyers", the zip of one's pants, or "fly us", a sexual slang term that, unsurprising, is about having sex.

Trivia

  • Coincidentally, "FlyUs" is also the name of a Dutch/Belgium cargo carrier in real-life. Similarly, the company's corporate logo bears a degree of semblance to the FlyUS logo (including the color use and distribution of colors among the logo's text).
