Canadian fractional operator AirSprint has accepted its 43rd aircraft, an Embraer Praetor 500, bringing its Embraer fleet to 17 aircraft. The company now serves more than 600 Canadian business leaders and families.

The Embraer Praetor 500 is a high-performance, transcontinental aircraft capable of efficiently spanning North America. Its range, speed and advanced avionics provide access to more destinations and enable long-distance travel with comfort and efficiency.

“This milestone reflects the trust Canadians have placed in AirSprint year after year,” says president and CEO James Elian. “With owners and operations spanning the country, AirSprint’s growing fleet and national footprint continue to expand access to private aviation, connecting more communities, enabling more direct travel and delivering a consistent owner experience from coast-to-coast.”

Looking ahead, AirSprint remains focused on strategic growth, investing in both its fleet and its people, and enhancing the owner experience across every touchpoint. With new aircraft, innovative programmes and a dedicated team, the company says it is well positioned to continue setting the standard for private aviation in Canada throughout the year and beyond.
