What happened

Duetto, a hotel revenue management (room pricing) company owned by private equity firm GrowthCurve Capital, has acquired Flyr Hospitality, the hotel pricing and business intelligence unit of airline-technology company Flyr. Skift and Lodging magazine reported the deal on 8 October 2026.

Neither company disclosed the price, according to Skift.

Flyr entered hotel room pricing in September 2022 by buying Pace Revenue, a start-up that had more than 1,000 hotels as clients at the time, Skift reported. Skift said IDeaS and Duetto were the two market leaders in the field.

Flyr Hospitality's website said more than 2,300 properties use its software, and Skift reported that Duetto's portfolio covers more than 20,000 hotels.

Lodging magazine reported that hoteliers will be able to choose among Duetto's highly configurable products, Flyr's fully automated revenue management system and its business intelligence tool. The magazine said Flyr's pricing engine refreshes prices in real time.

It also reported that Duetto's chief executive, Alex Zoghlin, described the deal as giving hoteliers the full picture of their commercial performance.

Skift described this as Duetto's third acquisition in under three years, after Micerate in February 2024 and HotStats in April 2025. Lodging described HotStats as a source of hotel profitability data. Skift also reported that GrowthCurve bought Duetto from affiliates of Warburg Pincus about a year before this deal.

Flyr will focus on its platform for airlines, which Skift says powers Riyadh Air. Skift also reported that Flyr's founder resigned as chief executive two weeks before the sale.
