XOJET and JetSmarter Announce Strategic Digital Alliance to Create Unparalleled Suite of Private Jet Solutions

At the core of the partnership is an XOJET-branded mobile app, powered by JetSmarter, which will allow XOJET program clients to book real-time charter on XOJET's fleet of Citation X and Challenger 300 jets. Additionally, XOJET clients can book shared charter flights, shuttle flights by the seat and take advantage of last-minute deals via the JetSmarter app. In return, JetSmarter members will receive real-time availability and preferred pricing on par with XOJET's Preferred Access and Elite Access program clients, available to book through the JetSmarter app.

XOJET's extensive sales, client service and fleet operational infrastructure combined with JetSmarter's innovative technology, worldwide shuttle flight network, digital distribution and mobile app brings together owner-operator excellence and digital distribution in a way that creates the ultimate high touch, high tech solution. The result is the industry's most complete suite of on-demand private jet options – from shuttle, to custom charter and last-minute deals, all with the level of premium, personalized service for which XOJET is renowned.

"As we continue to rapidly expand our private jet services throughout the US and internationally, providing our clients with unforgettable and stress-free travel experiences is our main goal," said Sergey Petrossov, CEO of JetSmarter. "Through this partnership with XOJET we will continue to offer our members the most luxurious private jet options and on-ground services, giving more travelers the opportunity to join our social network in the sky."

"More and more, clients are demanding multiple access points across the breadth of available private jet options. By partnering with JetSmarter, we are catering to their need for a mobile experience without sacrificing the high-touch service they expect from XOJET," said Brad Stewart, President & CEO of XOJET. "Aligning with JetSmarter is just one more step in addressing the industry's need for smart alternatives to the fractional model."

Access to XOJET's charter fleet will be available on the JetSmarter app starting October 1 2016. The XOJET app will launch in early 2017. Both apps will be available on iOS and Android.
