FlyHouse has made two executive appointments.
Anthony Banome (pictured right) is president of FlyHouse Solutions, and Brian P. Reid is chief revenue officer.
Both are new positions for the company.
FlyHouse Solutions is the company’s infrastructure division.
It connects essential aviation services, including fuel, maintenance, ground services, safety, training, financing, and aircraft sales into “one streamlined ecosystem.”
Banome will lead revenue strategy and drive partner integration.
He previously served in director-level positions at Fontainebleau Aviation and Meridian, and was most recently the chief revenue officer at Premier Chauffeured Services and Unique II Worldwide.
Banone was selected for the Top 40 Under 40 honors by the National Business Aviation Association.
He is the co-founder of Humble Heroes of FDNY and an ambassador to the Corporate Angel Network.
FlyHouse CEO Jack E. Lambert says, “Private aviation has needed a real infrastructure layer for a long time, and FlyHouse Solutions is our answer.”
He continues, “Anthony is one of the rare leaders who deeply understands its operational realities.”
Lambert says, “He brings exactly the kind of thinking we need to build the most seamless, connected model in private aviation for travelers, owners, and operators alike.”
“Very few companies in aviation are positioned the way FlyHouse is today,” said Anthony Banome, President, FlyHouse Solutions. “The infrastructure, leadership, and long-term vision are already here. I’m excited to help build on that momentum and scale what comes next.”
Last month, FlyHouse named Reid chief revenue officer.
Reid served as executive vice president at Wheels Up from 2014 through 2021.
At the private jet company, he led enterprise sales and secured strategic partnerships with American Express, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Costco.
Most recently, he served as the chief sales and marketing officer for Thomas James Homes.
Reid will inherit a host of partnerships, including LIV Golf’s 4Aces GC, the New York Jets, and ESPN College GameDay.
It also has alliances with Wayne Gretzky, Justin Rose, and Blake Griffin.
Lambert says, “Bringing on our first CRO is a major milestone, and there’s no one better suited to lead that charge than Brian. He knows this space inside and out and will be integral in taking a platform like this to the next level.”
Reid will also report to Lambert.
FlyHouse has been expanding its management team.
A recent investor presentation said the 201 start-up plans to build revenues to $2.64 billion by 2020.
