Maryland Athletics selects AeroVanti for basketball partnership
With the US basketball season underway, Maryland alumni and fans can join the AeroVanti Courtside Club in the Xfinity Center in Mansfield, Massachusetts.
AeroVanti is thrilled to support the student-athletes and staff of the Maryland Athletics Department.

Annapolis, Maryland-based private aviation membership programme AeroVanti Club has partnered with Maryland Athletics, its second such collaboration with a leading National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletics department. In addition to flying the Maryland Terrapins, AeroVanti is the exclusive aviation partner for the University of Central Florida Knights.

Now that US basketball season is in full swing, Maryland alumni and fans can join AeroVanti in The AeroVanti Courtside Club in the Xfinity Center in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

“We're thrilled to support the Maryland Athletics Department, its talented student-athletes and its hard-working coaching, support and administrative staff,” says founder and CEO Patrick Britton-Harr. “AeroVanti was founded in Annapolis, Maryland, so we'll always support our hometown teams. And with our operations and maintenance hub in Florida, we had to partner with UCF as well.”

“It's very exciting for Maryland Sports Properties to bring AeroVanti on as a strategic partner for this season and years to come,” says Maryland Sports Properties general manager Jack Krabbe. “Patrick and his team have trusted us to provide the brand exposure to the best fans and alumni in the country, and we know we will deliver.”

AeroVanti members are not burdened by costly initiation fees, expensive hourly rates, capped miles or inconvenient booking restrictions like other membership-based private aviation services. In addition to being faster and more affordable than its competitors, AeroVanti's fleet of Piaggio P180 Avantis has one-third the carbon footprint, making it the top option for the sustainability-conscious passenger.
