Volato Group, Inc., announced in a press release earlier today that it will accept delivery of its second Gulfstream G280 in January 2025.

The announcement noted, “This milestone is part of a four-aircraft order and reflects Volato’s strategy to capitalize on strong market demand for premium super-midsize jets.”

Volato added, “As the private aviation market faces constrained supply and significant backlogs, Volato’s ability to secure timely deliveries creates a unique opportunity to meet rising customer demand through aircraft sales.”

CEO Matt Liotta said, “This delivery marks the second Gulfstream G280 from our four-aircraft order, and we are well-positioned to realize value from these transactions.”

He added, “The demand for high-quality jets like the G280 remains incredibly strong, and these deliveries allow us to efficiently meet market needs while continuing to drive value for our stakeholders.”

Since exiting as a jet card, charter, and fractional operator, Volato has continued its Vaunt empty-leg program.

It has also announced a Bitcoin initiative.

Last year, Volato told Insider jet card members who didn’t move to FlyExclusive that it could not immediately refund unused balances.
