FLEXJET CONTINUES TO SET THE GOLD STANDARD

With a growing fleet, new facilities, and unrivaled service, Flexjet remains at the top of its game. Flexjet, one of private aviation’s leaders, continues to expand in all directions, with a growing fleet of aircraft, new private terminals, and an international arm that makes air travel to Europe seamless and stress-free. Recognized with its 18th FAA Diamond Award last year for overall excellence, the company is one of the safest flight providers and it delivers the highest quality service in the industry. Last year, Flexjet took delivery of 18 new aircraft, continuing its reputation for having the youngest fractional fleet in the industry. The company further expanded its mid and super midsize fleet with more Legacy 450 and Challenger 350 deliveries, while significantly bolstering its long-range capabilities, a new focus for the company. Flexjet recently added two large-cabin ultralong-range Gulfstream G650s, as well as G450s and Global Express long-range jets, and it will soon take delivery of its first G500. “Our clients love having access to the newest business jets,” says Flexjet CEO Michael Silvestro. “They also appreciate that we’re focused on growing our large-cabin fleet while still ofering smaller aircraft.” Flexjet has also grown its infrastructure, opening its second private terminal last year, in White Plains, N.Y., following its first in Naples, Fla., in 2016. It also opened a lounge in Palm Beach, Fla., in January, and plans for another terminal for Scottsdale, Ariz., next year. These private terminals all have dedicated lounges, parking, and other facilities available exclusively to Flexjet Owners. The firm also continues to grow its European operation, ofering seamless transfer from transatlantic flights with its Nextant 400XTi aircraft, which Flexjet upgraded specifically for travel within Europe.

Beyond recent aircraft and facilities upgrades, Flexjet continues to push customer service to new heights. Its Red Label program has established a new gold standard for the fractional model by creating a bespoke experience, both with the interiors of Flexjet’s LXi Cabin Collection™ and dedicated crews delivering customized and truly special service. Recently, Red Label’s concierge gave a group flying to Europe a “speak-easy” onboard experience, with a bar cart of their favorite whiskeys and ice-balls for their tumblers. In addition, Flexjet is underway with developing an advisory panel of celebrity chefs that will design signature dishes for the Red Label program. Flexjet continues to create an uncompromising experience for its owners, despite economic conditions. Where other providers have faltered and begun ofering down-market products, Flexjet weathered the recession a decade ago and continues to grow amid current market volatility, consistently delivering the very highest levels of service and the best private aviation experience.
