Company Description JetSuite’s vision to provide the freedom and exhilaration of private air travel to more people than ever is realized through efficient operations, acute attention to detail, acclaimed customer service, and industry-leading safety practices. And JetSuite continues to be the only jet charter company to guarantee its instant, online quotes for its fleet of WiFi-equipped JetSuite Phenom 100 and 300 aircraft. The fastest growing jet charter company in the nation, JetSuite is backed by some of the strongest names in aviation and customer service, including David Neeleman (Founder, JetBlue Airways & CEO, Azul Brazilian Airlines); Tony Hsieh (CEO, Zappos.com); and Art Samberg (Founder, Pequot Partners). Its executive team includes CEO Alex Wilcox (Co-Founder, JetBlue Airways), and VP of Operations Brian Coulter. JetSuiteX commenced public charter service in April 2016. We offer a new product in aviation by combining the speed and convenience of a private jet experience with a superior onboard experience, sold by the seat at a price near that of existing commercial service. The JetSuiteX fleet of Embraer 135s is a luxuriously reconfigured 30 passenger jet, each seat with at least 36-inch pitch, free WiFi and the comforts of a private jet at the price of flying commercial. Unlike JetSuite™s private jets where customers must book the whole aircraft, JetSuiteX sells individual seats on scheduled flights.
