AirSprint has promoted two longtime executives as it expands its fleet and plots continued growth, serving the Canadian market.
Canadian fractional private jet operator AirSprint has made a pair of leadership appointments.
Chris Foley is now Vice President of Operations.
Foley has been with AirSprint for more than two decades.
He began his career as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer.
President & CEO James Elian said, “Chris has been a key part of AirSprint’s evolution.”
He added, “His deep operational and organizational knowledge, dedication to our fractional owners, and proven track record make Chris the ideal leader as we take our next step on our growth path.”
Brett Knox has been appointed Director of Maintenance.
Knox joined AirSprint in 2006.
During his career, he has held positions as AME, Crew Lead, Production Manager, and most recently, Maintenance Manager.
He is a graduate of SAIT’s Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Program and now leads the maintenance team, including regulatory compliance.
Foley commented, “With over 18 years of dedicated service at AirSprint, Brett’s promotion to Director of Maintenance is a testament to his expertise, leadership, and unwavering commitment to excellence.”
In May, AirSprint was recognized as one of Canada’s best-managed companies for the sixth consecutive year.
Earlier this month, Elian said the company is maintaining its post-COVID growth trajectory.
In March, AirSprint added its 40th aircraft, a Praetor 600.
