Aircraft management and private jet charter start-up JetUp has secured Portuguese AOC #PT-01/26.
The certification was shared by the company's safety and compliance manager, Rui Rocha, on LinkedIn. It is unclear which aircraft were used to obtain the AOC.
JetUp's website lists two aircraft types, the Phenom 100EV and the HondaJet Elite II. ch-aviation research shows the aircraft pictured correspond to a 2022-built, six-seat Phenom 100EV, CS-DJI (msn 50000433) and a 2026-built, six-seat HondaJet Elite II, CS-DJL (msn 42000291).
While the HondaJet Elite II was previously operated privately, the Phenom 100EV has appeared on social media of aircraft management and private jet charter provider PHS Aviation (PSU, Braga). The company's fleet includes a Learjet 40 and a Slovenia-registered Citation II.
Based at Porto, JetUp aims to provide private jet charter services across Europe and aircraft management services in Portugal. Lleida, in Spain, serves as a secondary base, with hangar space and maintenance facilities.
JetUp's address matches that of Vigent, an investment group based in Trofa, near Porto, comprising metal manufacturer Metalogalva, seafood company Brasmar, real estate development and asset management firm Sapore, and venture capital company Point Capital Partners.
Vigent was founded by Joaquim Silva and is led by president Adelino Silva and CEO Sérgio Silva.

Atmospherica Aviation (AAN, Prague Václav Havel) has placed an order with Embraer Executive Jets for a Praetor 600E. The move aligns with plans to grow the company's Praetor fleet, as outlined by accountable manager Alice Horváth-Muška in a ch-aviation exclusive interview earlier in 2026.
In a statement, Atmospherica Aviation said the new aircraft, scheduled for delivery in 2029, will expand longer-range mission capabilities. The company currently operates two legacy Praetor 600s under the AOC of Atmospherica Jets, secured in early 2026. The new aircraft will accommodate up to nine passengers, matching the configuration of the two existing Praetor 600s.
The Praetor 600E, an upgraded version of the Praetor 600, was unveiled in early 2026 and received EASA certification in April.
Beyond the super midsize fleet operated under Atmospherica Jets' AOC, Atmospherica Aviation's AOC comprises a Phenom 300 and five Phenom 300Es, with a sixth unit on order to replace the standard Phenom 300, currently used as a spare during AOG situations.
In June, the company announced a deal with Embraer for two Phenom 300Es, scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2028 and intended to replace older Phenom 300Es. A month later, the same order was upgraded to two Phenom 300EVs, Embraer's latest evolution of the Phenom 300E, launched in July.
During an interview at AERO Friedrichshafen 2026, Horváth-Muška said the company planned to maintain a total of six light jet Phenom 300s, while growth was expected in the super midsize Praetor fleet. Atmospherica Aviation aims to maintain an average fleet age of less than approximately two and a half years.
