Vaunt adds hotel and airline booking to boost platform appeal
The company's Complete the Trip and Travel Center tools have been designed to help subscribers build flexible full itineraries with ease.

Volato Group’s private aviation platform Vaunt has added new features that allow users to book hotel stays and commercial airline tickets, expanding beyond its original private jet flight offering. Shown at the 2025 NBAA Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference, these additions appear within the “Complete the Trip” and “Travel Center” sections of the app.

Vaunt flights are usually one-way, spontaneous private jet journeys. The update makes it easier for travellers to add a return flight and hotel stay to their itineraries from within the same platform.

Vaunt has always been about delivering that adrenaline-pumping moment when you say yes to a spontaneous private jet flight,” says Tim Graves, VP of marketing and operations at Vaunt. “Now, we're helping our members go beyond the jet. We're giving them the tools to turn a one-way flight into a full, curated getaway, whether it's a weekend escape or an impromptu adventure.”

The new features also allow subscribers to improve their waitlist priority, boosting accessibility for users who value flexibility. Volato says this launch ties into wider aims to grow subscriber numbers, increase average revenue per user and expand the operator network.

Vaunt’s current operator network includes 111 aircraft from companies like JetVia, Koury Aviation and flyExclusive. Volato expects its network to grow further in the coming weeks, following meetings with scheduling and dispatch professionals during the conference.
