Private charter operator FlyExclusive (JRE, Kinston) has added a first Challenger 350 “super-midsize” business jet to its fractional ownership programme and says it plans to induct up to 20 of the type by the end of 2025.
“With the addition of the Challenger 350 to our fractional fleet, customers will have the chance to own a jet that boasts a cross-country, nonstop range in the largest cabin in the super-midsize category,” enthused CEO and founder Jim Segrave.

flyExclusive is a North Carolina-based on-demand charter specialist and one of the world's biggest operators of Cessna Aircraft Company Citations. According to ch-aviation fleets data, this includes eight Encore+, thirty-three Excels, fourteen Citation Jet 3s, seven 3+, nine Sovereigns, thirteen X, seven XLS, and three XLS+.
Notes accompanying a flyExclusive November 2023 investor presentation attest to it being the fifth-biggest private jet operator in the United States (based on flying hours) after NetJets Aviation, Vista Global/XOJET Aviation, Flexjet, and Wheels Up.
Separately, flyExclusive, which listed on the New York Stock Exchange in December via a special purpose acquisition vehicle, told the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 2 that it would be late filing its calendar 2023 and fourth quarter financial results. The Form 12-25b filing, signed by interim CFO Billy Barnard, said the results could not be filed by the due date because flyExclusive could not finalise its financial statements for the period without unreasonable effort and expense. The company now expects to file the documents on or before April 16, 2024.
