With an expanding fleet, charter operator Jet Edge is expanding its transcontinental program for Reserve members flying in its Bombardier Challengers. Under a previously announced effort, Jet Edge is expanding its fleet of Challenger 300- and 600-series and Gulfstream IV/SP and G450 jets that will be outfitted with new interiors, avionics, branded livery, and in-cabin features.

Last week, the Van Nuys, California-based Part 135 company marked the 25th of 35 new Challenger and Gulfstream deliveries, with another 10 deliveries expected through May 2022. With the deliveries, Jet Edge is expanding its coast-to-coast program for Reserve members to include flights on its Challengers at prices starting at $39,900. It also is expanding the transcontinental program to include non-coastal hubs such as Las Vegas; Salt Lake City; Bozeman, Montana; Aspen, Colorado; Nashville; and Scottsdale, Arizona.

“Our Reserve member base has continually asked us to extend our coast-to-coast offering to our Challenger aircraft, as well as develop a larger transcontinental footprint, and we are delivering an enhanced program for [Challenger] flyers that complements our Gulfstream program,” said Jet Edge chief commercial officer Jonah Adler.
