Milwaukee, Wisconsin-headquartered Jet Out has made a significant expansion to its operations; a new Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International airport base with two brand new aircraft and the construction of a private terminal at Waukesha County airport in Wisconsin.

Jet Out’s new Florida location marks the company’s first expansion outside the Midwest. Located in the Sheltair Aviation FBO, it will service co-owners and customers across south Florida and includes two brand new Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen 2 aircraft. The company has also hired a south Florida team of pilots, mechanics and aircraft detailers.

”Jet Out is excited to announce that its local-national fleet is now serving south Florida,” says CEO Joseph Crivello. “With a national network of aircraft that are locally based near common destinations for our fleet, we can support our clients in a much more personal and efficient way than any national competitor that relies on the floating fleet model.”

Jet Out is also constructing a 22,000sq ft private terminal at Waukesha, Wisconsin, designed to exclusively serve the company’s co-owners and charter customers. The hangar-terminal complex will feature meeting spaces, a kitchen, bar, game room and a lounge area, and should be completed in the first half of 2025.

“We’re committed to creating a facility that not only meets the needs of our customers but also enhances their experience,” says COO Matt Wild. “By prioritising operational efficiencies in the facility's design, we can achieve environmental sustainability while reducing costs. From energy-efficient heating and cooling systems to thoughtful layouts that streamline your journey through the terminal, our goal is to provide a more comfortable, convenient and sustainable private aviation experience.”

Jet Out’s expansion comes at a time of growth for the company. While the legacy fractional ownership industry continues to use a floating fleet model, Jet Out’s co-ownership model prioritises strategic investments in facilities, aircraft and technology that drive operational efficiencies and deliver value for an ownership-like experience at a lower cost.
