Statewide candidates in Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia and Georgia are being targeted first under the travel arrangement.
Flyte has reached an agreement with FullPAC, an AI-powered political technology platform used by more than 5,000 campaigns, Super PACs and party organisations since 2012, to become its recommended regional aviation provider for statewide political candidates.
Under the arrangement, qualified statewide campaigns in FullPAC's national network will be connected with Flyte's fleet of Cirrus Vision Jets, operated through its FAA-certified Part 135 subsidiary, Ponderosa Air, LLC. The companies are initially focusing on Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia and Georgia, where long travel distances, multiple media markets and dense regional airport infrastructure suit the aircraft's short-haul profile. The 2026 US election cycle is projected to exceed $11.4 billion in campaign spending, with statewide candidates travelling extensively between rallies, fundraising events, media interviews and voter outreach.
Travis Trawick, chief executive of FullPAC, says: "Every campaign is racing against the clock. Flyte gives our clients a transportation solution that can dramatically increase the number of communities, media markets and campaign events they can reach in a single day."
David Jenkins, chairman and chief executive of Flyte's parent company, Catheter Precision, adds: "This agreement opens an entirely new customer vertical for Flyte while leveraging the strengths of our regional aviation platform. Political campaigns represent a natural fit for regional aviation and an attractive long-term growth opportunity for our business."
The Cirrus Vision Jet, a single-engine aircraft equipped with the CAPS whole-aircraft parachute system and Safe Return Emergency Autoland, is intended to replace multi-hour highway journeys with direct flights into regional airports closer to campaign events. Flyte continues to build out its regional aviation network across the Eastern United States, with political travel positioned as an addition to its existing business and leisure markets.
