US private jet operator Thrive Aviation is opening a 17,000 sq ft headquarters expansion in Henderson, Nevada’s Green Valley Corporate Center. The company has experienced significant growth over the past few years, landing it in the top 25 per cent of Inc. 5000 companies, as well as being recognised as one of the top 20 charter operators in the United States by hours flown.

The new space is now home to Thrive’s operational control centre, where day-to-day operations of its globally operated fleet are managed by the flight support, maintenance planning, safety and dispatch teams. The company has invested heavily in the latest technology and amenities including a spacious reception area, modern conference rooms and private offices to accommodate its executive, commercial and finance teams. An on-site training and development lab will be used for education and training.

Co-founder and CEO Curtis Edenfield comments: “I am proud to continue our growth journey with this new space, providing our employees with a cutting-edge and comfortable place to call home. It is also important to us that our clients and partners see this expansion as belonging to them as well. Meeting in person is a little sweeter in these post-COVID days and we want to welcome every opportunity to do exactly that.”

In November last year, Thrive took delivery of a Gulfstream G600, taking its fleet to 18 aircraft.
