Meet the Founders

Riccardo Vittoria, CEO

Riccardo is the engineering and machine learning mind who started Claire. After he wrote his Master thesis, awarded magna cum laude, in mathematical optimization applied to airport operations, he went on to research in machine learning in Rome and Singapore. Prior to 30SecondsToFly Riccardo founded 2 companies, PeekBite in New York and MatrimoniFotoRoma in Rome. Riccardo has always been a geek when it comes to airlines and aircrafts, which is the reason why he ultimately started 30SecondsToFly with Felicia.

Felicia Schneiderhan, CPO and CMO

Felicia has a background in Public Management and Economics. During her Master's degree she invented a new hair styling tool and founded her first company for which she built a supply chain from China to Lithuania. Felicia also has a formal education as a journalist which she pursued alongside her Bachelor degree. In 2014 Felicia met Riccardo during their Fulbright year at NYU and in 2015 they set out to revolutionize corporate travel with 30SecondsToFly and their technology Claire.

Meet the team

At 30SecondsToFly we encourage travel and diversity because we believe in what it reinforces in us: an insatiable hunger to reach new lands, respect for what we do not know and strong personal relationships based on mutual appreciation for each other’s courage and resilience to conquer our challenges.
