Santa Monica will see its third JSX route when the by-the-seat shared private air service launches flights to Napa on April 17, 2026.

Since launching SMO to Las Vegas flights, it has also added Scottsdale.

At the same time, JSX is restarting its seasonal services from Burbank and Orange County to APC.

The new Santa Monica flights use twin-engine ATR turboprop aircraft.

The other routes will be served by its Embraer regional jets.

JSX reconfigures its aircraft with more legroom.

It uses private terminals, enabling passengers to check in up to 20 minutes before departure.

The jet fleet currently offers free Starlink WiFi.

The ATRs will also have the Starlink WiFi installed.

President David Drabinsky says, “We’re excited to welcome Napa Valley back to the JSX route map this spring with the resumption of flights from Orange County and Burbank.”

He adds, “Launching new flights from Santa Monica gives coastal California travelers another simple, seamless way to experience our award-winning service, making their flights as memorable as their destination.”

Santa Monica flights operate four days per week, on Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday.

High-demand periods will see daily service.

Fares start at $219 one-way on the ATR 42-600s.

Burbank Bob Hope and Orange County John Wayne flights offer similar schedules aboard the E135/145 fleet at similar prices.
