"Come Fly with Me" is a 1958 popular song composed by Jimmy Van Heusen, with lyrics by Sammy Cahn.
"Come Fly with Me" was written for Frank Sinatra, and was the title track of his 1958 album of the same name. The song sets the tone for the rest of the album, describing adventures in exotic locales, in Bombay, Peru and Acapulco Bay as the Jet Age began.
It subsequently became part of Sinatra's concert repertoire, and would feature in numerous performances.
Sinatra performed the song on his album Duets II (1994) as a duet with Luis Miguel.[1] To date, it is Miguel's only English-language song that he has released commercially.[2]

The song is featured prominently in the 1963 feature film Come Fly with Me sung by Frankie Avalon. The song was also used as the theme tune to the 1998 television series Airline, sung by Tina May, and it also appears in numerous films, including Raging Bull (1980), Dear Mr. Wonderful (1982), Betsy's Wedding (1990), Air America (1990), Vegas Vacation (1997), Little Voice (1998), Heartbreakers (2001), Catch Me If You Can (2002), Two Weeks Notice (2002), (2003), and PanAm (2011), and in two television bio-pics about Sinatra; the 1992 mini-series Sinatra and 1997's The Rat Pack.
