Priester introduces jet card at seven key US hubs
With its members in mind, Priester has created a bespoke jet card programme that claims the very highest safety standards, tip top crews and a variety of short and longer range aircraft to choose from.

Illinois-based Priester Aviation has introduced the 'Centerline' jet card programme, offering immediate booking and guaranteed availability to its members. The membership programme offers a range of on-demand aircraft serving seven gateway airports at New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, Denver and Miami.

“We were very deliberate in making the decision to offer a jet card programme,” says presiendet and CEO Andy Priester. “We waited until we were confident we could offer a better experience for our members. Because the Centerline Jet Card is invitation-only, we are able to curate a better experience, one that exceeds every expectation of quality and service.”

Priester's Centerline fleet ranges from light jets that seat six to ultra long-range aircraft that can transport up to nine passengers. Each of the aircraft meet ARGUS standards and have a minimum of $250 million in liability insurance cover as well as senior flight crew and an established safety plan.

Priester specialises in aircraft management and has close to 75 years of experience. In addition to being ARGUS Platinum rated it is Wyvern, IS-BAO Stage 3 and Air Charter Safety Foundation accredited.
