Northern Jet pledges to deliver authentic experiences
A merger of businesses has now seen SpeedBird fully absorbed into Northern Jet. The company has transformed pilot uniforms, and is planning fleet interior upgrades.

The merger of SpeedBird, headquartered in Orlando, Florida and Northern Jet Management, based in Grand Rapids, Michigan has culminated in a formidable partnership of industry leaders, say the two companies, creating a consolidated brand named Northern Jet.

CEO Chris Bull notes: “Embarking as Northern Jet on this transformative journey, we join the strengths of two unique entities. The bedrock of this merger lies in our pledge to deliver a personal, private and authentic experience to our joint clientele, all while upholding the utmost standards of safety.”

Dedicated passenger terminals at Gerald R Ford International airport in Grand Rapids and Orlando Executive and Naples airports in Florida are undergoing modernisation, and a number of aircraft in the fleet are slated to receive interior upgrades this summer.
