Since starting out a little over a decade ago, Great Flight has carved out a strong reputation for top-tier charter flying. This year it has introduced the CJ3 to its fleet, and the team is already considering another.
Florida-headquartered Great Flight is continuing to establish itself as a premier provider of charter, having completed its first mission in 2014.
“As a family-run business headquartered in West Palm Beach, with additional South Florida locations, we’ve expanded steadily, delivering exceptional service,” remarks executive Camilly DeSouza. “We specialise in last-minute flights, boasting a remarkable 60-minute turnaround from booking to takeoff – a rare find in the aviation industry. For those unable to reach Palm Beach International airport, we offer the convenience of pickups from nearby airports, ensuring accessibility for all.”
Privacy is a cornerstone of the operation. “Every staff member signs NDAs to safeguard client confidentiality, while our personalised catering and ground transportation services add a tailored touch to every journey. Our diverse fleet of 11 aircraft meets various needs: the Cirrus SR22 GTS is perfect for short trips with two to three passengers; the Cessna 441 Conquests, seating nine passengers and with an impressive range, are perfect for family or business travel; and the Citation M2 and new Citation CJ3 jets offer luxury, speed and ample space.”
In 2025, Great Flight has reached new milestones. It has introduced the Citation CJ3, upgraded all aircraft with Starlink wi-fi and achieved ARGUS Gold certification, reflecting its commitment to safety. A proud achievement is a partnership with a Miami-Dade County hospital, transporting surgical teams and organs for transplants, directly impacting lives.
“This year demonstrates our dedication to enhancing service,” continues DeSouza. “Looking forward, we’re pursuing ARGUS Platinum certification and considering another CJ3 to expand our fleet. We’re also seeking government contracts to transport inmates, diplomats and additional hospital personnel. Rooted in family values and a passion for excellence, Great Flight continues to innovate, promising a future of growth and superior travel experiences.”
