"In a very real sense, Come Fly with Me captures Sinatra at his untouchable zenith: his manner seductive, his promise romantic, his range of contacts, as the track titles suggest, genuinely international." - Penguin Guide To Jazz

"Constructed around a light- hearted travel theme, Come Fly with Me, Frank Sinatra's frst project with arranger Billy May, was a breezy change of pace from the sombre Where Are You. May's signature bold, brassy arrangements give these songs a playful, carefree, nearly sarcastic feel, but never is the approach less than affectionate. In fact, Come Fly with Me is flled with varying moods and textures, as it moves from boisterous swing numbers to romantic ballads, and hitting any number of emotions in between. There may be greater albums in Sinatra's catalogue, but few are quite as fun as Come Fly with Me." - AllMusic
