Building the World’s Most Exclusive Sky Club

The Cleveland-based company is not just growing in airspace—it’s expanding on the ground too. It currently boasts 11 private terminals, either operational or under construction. A marquee terminal in London Farnborough is slated to open in early 2026, serving as a European gateway for high-net-worth flyers.

The company also touts private aviation’s largest in-house maintenance network and its Cabin Attendant Academy, ensuring service excellence remains as polished as the jets themselves.

Investment to Fuel Long-Term Vision—But Control Stays Grounded

This historic investment doesn’t mean a changing of the guard. Flexjet’s existing shareholders will retain control, underscoring the investment’s strategic nature rather than a takeover.

The funding is expected to amplify Flexjet’s mission to revolutionize private jet travel, forging a “unique and differentiated” partnership between company leadership and the investor consortium.

An All-Star Lineup of Advisors
