Charter operator JetSuite announced at NBAA 2017 a fleet expansion, having added the first of several Embraer Phenom 300 light jets to its roster in late September, with entry into service expected in mid-October.

“We began a remarkably successful relationship with Embraer products years ago when we were a launch partner for the Phenom 100,” said JetSuite CEO Alex Wilcox. “We’ve since added Embraer 135s and a Legacy 650, and now we’re excited to continue adding Embraer products by adding the first Phenom 300 to our fleet. We will continue adding Phenom 300s to our portfolio, both on our own and through our aircraft management program, which we debuted earlier this year.”

The Phenom 300, the world’s best-selling business jet for the past four years, offers more cabin space, speed and range than the Phenom 100s and Citation CJ3s that form the core of JetSuite’s current fleet.
