flyExclusive partners with Pardo for yacht exposure
Through the partnership, owners and members will receive access to select Pardo Yachts experiences, while Pardo clients will be introduced to flyExclusive's fractional ownership and Jet Club programmes.
There are close synergies between the private jet and yachting industries.

flyExclusive, a prominent US operator, has signed up for a multi-year partnership with Pardo Yachts, becoming the Italian yacht builder's premier private aviation partner.

The partnership is designed to serve a shared clientele that values design, performance and effortless mobility across both air and sea. Together, flyExclusive and Pardo will deliver curated travel experiences, private events and integrated destination access that extend beyond traditional transportation.

“Pardo is an iconic global brand that represents the pinnacle of the luxury yacht builders,” states Jim Segrave, founder, chairman and CEO of flyExclusive. “This partnership is about experience, not just transportation. Our customers already expect exceptional service in the air. Partnering with Pardo allows us to expand that same standard of precision and design-driven thinking into how they arrive, explore and experience destinations, creating a luxuriously blended travel experience beyond our fleet of aircraft.”

In July, flyExclusive enhanced its fractional ownership and Jet Club membership offerings by introducing the cornerstone of the partnership, its amphibious Cessna Caravan service, which enables direct access to private beaches, islands and waterfront destinations across south Florida, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. The capability allows clients to transition seamlessly from private aircraft to yacht-accessible locations without reliance on traditional airport infrastructure.

Through the partnership, flyExclusive owners and members will receive privileged access to select Pardo Yachts experiences, while Pardo clients will be introduced to flyExclusive's fractional ownership and Jet Club programmes through invitation-only opportunities and bespoke travel offerings.

flyExclusive is a natural partner for Pardo,” says Dave Clark, US managing director of Pardo Yachts. “Our clients value performance, design and seamless experiences, and this collaboration allows us to extend that mindset beyond the yacht, creating a truly integrated air-to-sea lifestyle.”

As part of the collaboration, flyExclusive and Pardo plan to host and participate in a number of co-branded events and destination experiences throughout the year, including major cultural and sporting moments, like the FIFA 2026 World Cup and Formula One Miami, as well as leading yacht shows in the United States.
