FAA Clears DayJet For Take-Off

Launch of World's First "Per-Seat, On-Demand" Jet Service Just Weeks Away

OK... from here on out, things start to REALLY get interesting.

DayJet has received authorization from the FAA to use Eclipse 500 VLJs in its operations. DayJet Services is the holder of an on-demand air carrier certificate from the FAA authorizing operations under Part 135 of the FAA's regulations. The company is preparing to use its fleet of VLJs to launch the world's first "Per-Seat, On-Demand" jet service.

"This milestone is the culmination of more than five years of dedicated work to develop the world's first fully automated fleet operations system," said Ed Iacobucci (pictured below, center, with Eclipse's Vern Raburn and Nancy Iacobucci), DayJet president and CEO.

"We are incredibly grateful to the dedicated FAA teams that have worked alongside DayJet to reach this critical moment in our company's history."

In the coming weeks, DayJet will begin activating member accounts via its online reservation system, allowing members to book reservations and fly. The company will gradually increase its active member base as it expands its operations and its VLJ fleet. This measured approach enables DayJet to monitor the daily progress of operations and to ensure the highest levels of customer service and fleet availability.

DayJet intends to pioneer a new type of regional travel, what they term "Per-Seat, On-Demand" jet service that is uniquely tailored to accommodate the flight time requested by each customer and priced at a modest premium to full-fare coach airfares. Headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, DayJet has developed this new industry's first real-time operations system.
