Capital Air Express, a Georgia-based air charter operator, announces fleet and airport base expansions towards convenient travel options for business and leisure travelers.
Capital Air Express, which is part of the Anderson Aviation group of companies based at the Atlanta Regional Airport/Falcon Field in Peachtree City, Georgia, is focused exclusively on affordable and convenient charter services for its rapidly growing community of customers located throughout the eastern United States.
“We love the business of aviation and feel we have found our niche in this air charter space, along with our membership-based flying club and aircraft maintenance service also based at Falcon Field,” says Andrew Anderson, founder and CEO of Capital Air Express. “We’re excited to add planes and new markets as we grow, and, with recent FAA approval to operate through the Bahamas, we’ve truly established a full-service charter operation that has the right reach, aircraft fleet and affordable pricing towards supporting all types of customers.”
Capital Air Express has partnered with Gracen Jules, a New Orleans-based aviation venture firm focused on fleet transactions and operator support, towards adding three additional aircraft to its air charter operation, with all three aircraft featuring premium passenger cabins and state-of-the-art, all-glass Garmin instrument panels. Gracen Jules has also provided two additional Garmin-glass aircraft to the Atlanta Flying Club, which is part of the Anderson Aviation companies that owns Capital Air Express.
“The most exciting part of aviation for me is providing fellow pilots and travelers comfortable access to the air, and this opportunity to provide a fleet of planes to Capital Air Express and the Atlanta Flying Club is truly a dream come true,” says Jay Taffet, founder and CEO of Gracen Jules. “I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my partnership with Andrew and his group of aviation companies, and I look forward to a life-long partnership with Andrew and his wife Rebecca, who runs their flying club, and, of course, plenty of flight time for their pilots and passengers!”
Capital Air Express is an FAA-certificated, Part 135 air charter companyproviding year-round flight support in its fleet of Piper Saratogas and Piper Malibus, both 6-seat, high-performance piston aircraft that feature low operating cost and extended trip range towards affordable and convenient air charter for both business and leisure passengers.
