George J. Priester Aviation is the new corporate umbrella for three longstanding private jet management and charter brands.

The new name, which honors the founder of his namesake company, includes Priester Aviation, Mayo Aviation, and Hill Private Aviation.

“For years, we’ve worked to uphold and build upon the legacy that my grandfather created and my father expanded,” Chairman and CEO Andy Priester said.

He added, “It matters to us that the branding and story behind our parent company unites our businesses while honoring the pillars on which all companies were founded: a focus on relationships and a steadfast commitment to our clients.”

George J. Priester Aviation was the original name dating back to 1945.

The company began as a flight training school for military veterans.

The company has been expanding with acquisitions of Denver-based Mayo Aviation in 2022 and Atlanta-based Hill Private Aviation last July.
