Texas' Leviate Jet Management is adding six HondaJets to its growing fleet. The advanced light jets will operate on a high-utilisation charter basis, further enhancing Leviate's nationwide service capabilities and addressing increasing demand for reliable, efficient private aviation solutions.

This fleet expansion is part of Leviate's broader growth strategy, which encompasses multiple aircraft categories. The company currently operates a diverse portfolio of business jets, including Citation Xs, Citation XLSs, Challenger 300s, a CJ3+, PC-24 and a Citation M2 Gen2. Leviate plans to continue expanding its core fleet in 2025 to also include additional HondaJets, enabling the company to continue to meet a wide range of client needs.

“The HondaJet is one of the most advanced light jets available, combining exceptional efficiency with operational versatility,” states Luis Barros, CEO of Leviate Air Group. “The addition of these aircraft positions Leviate to better serve the growing demand for high-utilisation light jet charter operations while offering aircraft owners an optimised programme to maximise revenue and operational use.”

The HondaJets are supported by Leviate's robust management infrastructure. A dedicated maintenance manager oversees the fleet's operational efficiency, minimising downtime and ensuring consistent performance. The aircraft's charter operations are driven by a specialised sales team focused on revenue optimisation and utilisation, while a fleet-specific lead captain and check airman manage pilot training and operational standards to maintain the highest levels of safety and reliability.

“This addition underscores Leviate's commitment to operational excellence and strategic growth,” notes Rob Rosenberg, managing partner of Leviate Air Group. “The HondaJets perfectly complement our existing fleet and represent a significant step in our continued expansion. We are excited to offer enhanced solutions to our clients and look forward to sustained growth in 2025.”

Strategically based in Florida and Texas, the HondaJets will provide efficient service to key high-demand markets across the United States. With nearly 22 years of incident-free operations, Leviate Jet Management continues to lead the business aviation industry, delivering innovative solutions and maintaining an unwavering focus on safety and reliability.
