The combined entity will offer the management, hangar, charter and maintenance services in the New York Metro, Southern California and South Florida areas, in addition to having a presence in Northern California and Delaware. JFI Jets will combine the companies’ respective charter and managed fleets, bringing the total to 17 business jets.
