Freelandia was a low-cost counter-culture airline company owned by founder Kenneth Moss that operated in 1973 and the beginning of 1974. The company operated an aircraft that flew between various destinations, but in an attempt to avoid regulation by the Civil Aeronautics Board, the company did not call itself an airline. Instead, it positioned itself as a travel club, with paid members who voted where the aircraft would fly. It operated only one leased DC-8-21, but lower than expected sales caused the company to cease operations in 1974 after its aircraft was repossessed for non-payment. After its demise, the company and its founder were charged with false advertising and fraudulent business practices by the State of California.

En cambio, se posicionó como un club de viajes, con miembros pagados que votaban dónde volaría el avión. Solo operó un DC-8-21 arrendado, pero las ventas inferiores a las esperadas hicieron que la compañía dejara de operar en 1974 después de que su aeronave fuera recuperada por falta de pago. Después de su desaparición, la empresa y su fundador fueron acusados de publicidad engañosa y prácticas comerciales fraudulentas por parte del Estado de California. (es)
