On Monday, XOJET announced the
appointment of Eilif Serck-Hanssen to the position of chief
financial officer and president of international operations and

“Eilif is a highly respected strategic and financial
executive with strong airline experience and a deep understanding
of our business. We are thrilled that he has joined the XOJET
team.” said Paul Touw, CEO, XOJET. “Eilif will be a
significant asset as we continue on our path to becoming a billion
dollar company.”
Prior to joining XOJET, Serck-Hanssen served as executive vice
president and chief financial officer for Eos Airlines, Inc., the
first airline dedicated exclusively to premium long-haul business

"XOJET’s innovative approach to private aviation has
driven its rapid revenue growth, customer adoption and business
expansion, which is particularly notable for a new aviation
industry entrant,” said Serck-Hanssen. “I look forward
to working with the management team and investors to build on this
solid foundation, and seize the tremendous global market
opportunities ahead.”
