Luxury Aircraft Solutions named in Inc. 5000 for 2018
Entrepreneurs are the lifeblood of an economy and US business magazine Inc.'s ranking of 5,000 companies is an indicator of America's circulatory system. In at number 2,143 is a Long Island charter brokerage.

New York-based Luxury Aircraft Solutions (LAS) has been named in this year's Inc 5000's list of the fastest-growing companies in America based on revenue growth. The 5,000 businesses are ranked based on percentage revenue growth over a three-year period. This is the first year that LAS has made the list since it commenced business in 2011, and it appears in the top half above 57 per cent of all listed companies.

Managing director Daniel Hirschhorn says: “We are honoured to be part of the Inc. 5000 for 2018. Our team has worked incredibly hard providing our clients with top-notch flight experiences and service, and this recognition is clear indication that we have been successful at doing just that. We look forward to continuing to serve our clients and provide them with the best charter flight experience out there.”

LAS is placed at 2,143 out of 5,000 as a result of 207 per cent growth from 2014 to 2017 and $6.1 million in revenue in 2017. The 2014-17 figure includes average growth of more than 48 per cent in annual revenue and over 35 per cent in flight contracts. From just 2016-2017 alone the company saw increases of greater than 73 per cent year-on-year in revenue as well as 63 per cent in flight contracts.

Luxury Aircraft Solutions has seen substantial progress over the last few years, especially from 2016 to 2017,” Hirschhorn adds. “Our service-based model includes unique features that are simply unmatched by our competition, such as our jet card programme, with the lowest price of entry in the industry, starting at five hours, and with no membership fee. We know that our growth can be attributed directly to the level of service we provide, as well as to the variety of options we offer. Our clients keep returning to us, rather than to competitors, and they refer their friends, family and colleagues to us too.”
