Flexjet LLC, an innovative leader in private aviation dedicated to protecting the health and well-being of its travelers and employees, today announced that they are the first and only large-scale operator in their industry to routinely test all of its more than 830 flight crew members for COVID before each tour of duty.
Flexjet Ltd., offering travelers access to the world’s most luxurious fleet of private jets, accepted delivery of the first Praetor 600 aircraft in its European-based fleet, marking a significant milestone in the expansion of the company’s global business. Flexjet is the only shared-ownership/fractional provider of the Praetor 600, part of a US$1.4 billion order for Embraer Executive Jets, a division of Embraer S.A. (NYSE: ERJ; BM&FBOVESPA: EMBR3), that was announced in October 2019.
Flexjet today announced that its pilots and flight crews will no longer rely on commercial airlines to travel to or from flight assignments but instead on Flexjet’s private fleet. This unprecedented method of crew transport has been put in place to protect the health and safety of Flexjet Owners and flight crews during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Flexjet has earned its 21st Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Diamond Award of Excellence for Aviation Maintenance Technician Training for 2019. No other private jet provider has earned this award 21 consecutive years.
Flexjet will open a “pop-up” private terminal at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport exclusively for Flexjet Owners who are traveling to football’s biggest game. Operating from January 30 through February 4, the Flexjet Exclusive “pop up” terminal ensures Flexjet Owners receive private aviation’s most exciting travel experience during a period when more than 1,100-1,500 private aircraft are expected to descend on South Florida for the Big Game.
