Volato to Take Delivery of Second Gulfstream G280 in January 2025, Leveraging Strong Market Demand for Premium Jets

Posted 7:30AM on Monday, January 13, 2025

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 13, 2025--

Volato Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Volato”) (NYSE American: SOAR), a leader in private aviation, today announced the upcoming delivery of its second Gulfstream G280 in January 2025. This milestone is part of a four-aircraft order and reflects Volato’s strategy to capitalize on strong market demand for premium super-midsize jets.

The Gulfstream G280 remains one of the most desirable aircraft in its class, with a range of up to 3,600 nautical miles, advanced performance, and a spacious, luxurious cabin. As the private aviation market faces constrained supply and significant backlogs, Volato’s ability to secure timely deliveries creates a unique opportunity to meet rising customer demand through aircraft sales.

“This delivery marks the second Gulfstream G280 from our four-aircraft order, and we are well-positioned to realize value from these transactions,” said Matt Liotta, CEO of Volato. “The demand for high-quality jets like the G280 remains incredibly strong, and these deliveries allow us to efficiently meet market needs while continuing to drive value for our stakeholders.”

The Gulfstream G280 Advantage:

Incredible Performance: A range of 3,600 nautical miles and top cruising speed of Mach 0.85, enabling non-stop coast-to-coast and transcontinental flights.
Luxurious Cabin: A spacious, quiet environment with advanced features for work and relaxation.
Market Opportunity: Delays across the private aviation industry have created a strong appetite for immediate deliveries of premium jets, allowing Volato to maximize the value of its four-aircraft order.

The delivery of Volato’s second G280 reinforces the company’s focus on strategically aligning its aircraft portfolio with market opportunities. With two additional G280s scheduled for later in 2025, Volato is positioned to benefit from ongoing demand while continuing to deliver value to its customers and shareholders.
