Air Wisconsin Airlines is taking steps to expand its charter operations.

Demand for its CRJ-200 aircraft has grown significantly, particularly among NCAA collegiate sports teams. The realignment of major athletic conferences has increased travel distances for teams, both during their regular season and post-season tournaments. Air Wisconsin says its fleet is well equipped to meet the needs of most collegiate teams and other private and group charter customers seeking tailored travel solutions.

Having recently retired all the remaining debt on its aircraft, Air Wisconsin embarks on this new direction with enhanced financial flexibility.

“This strategic shift underscores our adaptability and commitment to delivering reliable, customised air travel solutions where they are most needed,” says Robert Binns, president and CEO of Air Wisconsin. “As we grow our charter operations, we remain committed to delivering safe, efficient and quality service to every community and customer we serve.”

Air Wisconsin Airlines has been a key player in regional aviation since 1965, operating a fleet of 60 Bombardier CRJ-200 aircraft.
