Practically, yes.

The AI pair has a type of long A sound, and the Y has a long E sound. But the presence of the R extends the first syllable. The AI vowel sound here is indicated by a caret A, which forms the AIR phoneme.

The rhyming word "fairy" is very close in sound to "ferry" especially in British English.
