Expanding Network of Charter Ops Expands Domestic Footprint
Pegasus Elite Aviation has moved its East Coast airport base to Signature Aviation TEB East in Teterboro, New Jersey.
The private charter operator has been collecting planes and accolades in recent years, helped along by an acquisition by Prima Air at the end of 2022. Today, the Pegasus Elite fleet has a pair of Gulfstream G650s, a single Boeing 737, and 10 Gulfstream Gas and GIVs. The change puts Pegasus about 30 minutes from Midtown Manhattan, a pretty good little spot to cater to its hoity-toity business operators in the area. The operator now sports locations at Hollywood Burbank Airport, Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport, Las Vegas Airport, and the Hong Kong Business Aviation Center. While a fairly small footprint from above, Pegasus says it makes for an efficient operating network supporting North American, Asian-Pacific, and transatlantic routes. The company's dispatch center operates out of a state-of-the-art 37,000-square-foot VIP hangar in Van Nuys, CA.
"As Pegasus' fleet and operations continue to expand, we have strategically chosen a facility like Signature East to provide dedicated office and hangar space," Gentry Long, Chief Operating Officer of Pegasus Elite Aviation, said. "This strategic move is a testament to Pegasus' forward-thinking approach and our readiness to meet the growing demand for North American flights and new routes, especially as we prepare for the busy summer travel season following the Memorial weekend."
Lina Tullberg, Founder and CEO of Prima Air, the parent company of Pegasus Elite Aviation, expressed confidence in the global private business jet industry and its market potential. "With our professional management, efficient operational expertise, and global strategic layout, I am confident that Pegasus Elite Aviation will soon rise as the top-tier company of the international charter industry."
