DPA-Based Jet Expands Charter Offerings
Delta AirElite Business Jets
announced this week the addition of a Citation X, further expanding
its charter fleet.
"Delta AirElite offers a broad range of charter aircraft options
to serve our customers varying needs and requests," said Curtis
Kruger, Delta AirElite's Chief Operating Officer. "The addition of
a Citation X to our fleet further demonstrates our commitment to
provide our customers with access to the most popular and
technologically advanced charter aircraft available."
The speedy Citation X -- the world's fastest business jet,
cruising at speeds up to 600 mph and offering a range of 3,300
miles -- seats eight passengers and offers a stand-up cabin with a
full complement of amenities designed to provide passengers with a
comfortable and productive travel experience.
Based at the DuPage County Airport (DPA) outside of Chicago, the
Citation X joins the Delta AirElite fleet through an aircraft
management agreement. Delta AirElite continues to expand its fleet
through aircraft management agreements which provide high-quality
and well-maintained jets for its broad base of customers. Aircraft
management agreements are an attractive option for corporations and
aircraft owners who want to lower aircraft ownership costs,
generate revenue and enjoy unique benefits available only through
Delta AirElite.
Delta AirElite was the first charter operator to add the Falcon
7X, the newest member of the Falcon Jet family, to its fleet. In
addition, Delta AirElite is also one of the first charter operators
to certify the ultra long-range Gulfstream G550 and the super
mid-size Bombardier Challenger 300 for commercial charter
service.
