FlyExclusive, which launched its Club jet card program early last year, is making major revisions to the program. Flyers may view the changes as a mixed bag based on their travel patterns.
Out of the depths of the biggest downturn business aviation has ever seen, here comes industry veteran Jim Segrave and his Kinston, North Carolina-based FlyExclusive.
Since its launch in 2014, Segrave, who previously sold Segrave Aviation to Delta Private Jets in 2010, has built a fleet of more than 60 private jets. Expansion plans call for reaching the century mark.

Founded by Jim Segrave, who previously sold Segrave Aviation to Delta Air Lines in 2010, the company has plans to increase its current fleet of over 90 aircraft (see table below).
Its Jet Club membership program, launched in May 2020, features light, midsize, and super-midsize private jets.
The Club was revamped in October 2021 with an expanded service area and the flexibility to book up fixed rates up to 24 hours before departure.
In April 2022, the company placed its first new aircraft order for 30 Citation CJ3+ models. It also announced a fractional ownership program.
In October 2022, it announced an additional order for its fractional program of eight Cessna Citation XLS Gen2 aircraft to be delivered in 2024 and up to six Citation Longitudes, with initial deliveries of the first two Longitudes in 2025.
