FlyExclusive is fifth on our list of the 30 largest private jet operators based on charter and fractional flight hours through June 2023.
Founded by Jim Segrave, who sold Segrave Aviation to Delta Air Lines in 2010, the company plans to increase its current fleet of over 90 aircraft (see table below).
Its Jet Club membership program, launched in May 2020, features light, midsize, and super-midsize private jets.
The Club was revamped in October 2021 with an expanded service area and the flexibility to book fixed rates up to 24 hours before departure.
In April 2022, the company placed its first new aircraft order for 30 Citation CJ3+ models. It also announced a fractional ownership program.
In October 2022, it announced an additional order for its fractional program of eight Cessna Citation XLS Gen2 aircraft to be delivered in 2024 and up to six Citation Longitudes, with initial deliveries of the first two Longitudes in 2025.
In October 2022, it announced plans for an IPO via a SPAC merger.
In December 2023, FlyExclusive became a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange trading under FLYX.
In March 2024, FlyExclusive announced the addition of Bombardier Challenger 350 aircraft to its fleet, with plans for approximately 20 as part of its Fleet Refresh Program. This aircraft will now be available in their Fractional Program.
