Jet Out expands operations with new Florida base and Waukesha terminal

Jet Out, Inc., a leading Milwaukee, Wisconsin-headquartered provider of private aviation and aircraft co-ownership services, has announced a significant expansion to its operations, including a new Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) base with two brand-new aircraft in Florida and the construction of a state-of-the-art private terminal at Waukesha County Airport (UES) in Wisconsin.

Jet Out's new Florida location marks the company's first expansion outside the Midwest. Located in the Sheltair Aviation FBO at FLL, the Florida base will include two brand-new Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen 2 aircraft. The new base will service Jet Out co-owners and customers across south Florida. The new aircraft join Jet Out's existing fleet, which is the newest and largest fleet of CJ4s in the United States.

“Jet Out is excited to announce that its local-national fleet is now serving south Florida,” says Joseph Crivello, chief executive officer of Jet Out. “With a national network of airplanes that are locally based near common destinations for our fleet, Jet Out can support our clients in a much more personal and efficient way than any national competitor that relies on the floating fleet model.”

In support of its local-national fleet model, Jet Out has hired a south Florida team of experienced aviation professionals, including pilots, mechanics and aircraft detailers.

In addition to the Florida expansion, Jet Out is constructing a 22,000 square-foot private terminal at UES in Waukesha, Wisconsin, designed to exclusively serve the company's co-owners and charter customers.

Designed by TDI Associates, Jet Out is working with KB Walker, Absolute Concrete, Schmitz Ready Mix and other contractors to build a hangar-terminal complex that will feature various amenities, including meeting spaces, a kitchen, a bar, a game room and a lounge area. Jet Out expects to complete the facility in the first half of 2025.

“We're committed to creating a facility that not only meets the needs of our customers but also enhances their experience,” said Matt Wild, chief operating officer of Jet Out. “By prioritising operational efficiencies in the facility's design, we can achieve environmental sustainability while reducing costs. From energy-efficient heating and cooling systems to thoughtful layouts that streamline your journey through the terminal, our goal is to provide a more comfortable, convenient and sustainable private aviation experience.”

Jet Out's expansion comes at a time of remarkable growth for the company. While the legacy fractional ownership industry continues to use a floating fleet model, Jet Out stands out by offering a unique co-ownership model that prioritises strategic investments in facilities, aircraft and technology. These investments drive operational efficiencies and deliver exceptional value to Jet Out's co-owners. These investments offer an ownership-like experience at a significantly lower cost compared to the floating fleet model.
