Volato embarks on fractional G280 programme
Volato fractional owners enjoy benefits including unlimited flying hours, no blackout days and a guaranteed minimum revenue share of 650 hours per year for both the HondaJet and the G280, ensuring flexibility.
Volato anticipates taking delivery of two Gulfstream G280s this year, with its first aircraft scheduled to arrive in August.

Volato Group has launched its fractional G280 ownership programme, expanding its fractional offering to the super-midsize category and becoming the only provider in the US to offer fractional ownership of the G280.

The Gulfstream G280 is designed to complement Volato's existing fleet of HondaJets by offering a spacious cabin that comfortably seats up to 10 guests and boasts an extended range of up to 3,600 nm. This allows for nonstop coast-to-coast and transatlantic flights, providing access to more destinations with certifications for steep approaches and high-altitude landings.

“Our customers' travel needs are diverse, and while the majority of private aviation missions are efficiently served by the HondaJet, there is significant demand for larger aircraft for longer journeys and bigger groups,” says Matt Liotta, CEO of Volato. “The G280 addresses these needs, ensuring we continue to provide the right aircraft for every mission. This addition reinforces our commitment to offering tailored solutions that enhance flexibility and convenience for our customers.”

Volato anticipates taking delivery of two Gulfstream G280s this year, with its first aircraft scheduled to arrive in August. The first jet will embark on a multi-city viewing tour offering potential buyers a firsthand look and the opportunity to secure a fractional interest in the G280.

Volato fractional owners enjoy benefits including unlimited flying hours, no blackout days and a guaranteed minimum revenue share of 650 hours per year for both the HondaJet and the G280. This ensures maximum value and flexibility for Volato customers.
