Privaira Private Aviation, an aircraft operator and management company based in Boca Raton, Florida, is to be acquired by US charter brokerage TLC Jet. The acquisition represents a significant step forward in TLC Jet’s long-term strategic plan to expand its in-house fleet, enhance operational control and further elevate the client experience across its charter and aircraft management programmes.

Privaira brings to TLC Jet a well-established operating base in South Florida, a region central to North American private aviation demand. Its team, infrastructure and fleet, consisting of charter-dedicated aircraft in addition to a substantial roster of Part 91 managed jets, will integrate into TLC Jet’s national platform. Privaira’s ARGUS Platinum and Wyvern Wingman designations underscore the company’s longstanding commitment to safety standards that align directly with TLC Jet’s own operational philosophy.

Justin Firestone, founder of TLC Jet, describes the acquisition as a deliberate and forward-looking expansion: “This agreement reflects our disciplined approach to growth. Privaira’s capabilities, fleet and team are an excellent complement to the service culture we’ve built at TLC Jet. By combining our strengths, we are able to provide more capacity for our clients at a time when demand for premium private aviation solutions continues to rise.”

The integration of Privaira bolsters the company’s aircraft management platform, providing enhanced services for aircraft owners while expanding TLC Jet’s footprint throughout South Florida and the broader southeastern US.

Privaira’s leadership and team members will join TLC Jet as part of the transition, enabling continuity of service for existing clients and a smooth integration of operations.

The deal is subject to necessary regulatory and governmental approvals. Additional details regarding fleet integration, service enhancements and combined operational capabilities will be shared as the transition progresses.
