Global air charter operator Prime Jet has added an Embraer ERJ 145 aircraft to its growing fleet. As part of the company’s growth and product expansion initiative, the new acquisition will provide business class air travel for large groups up to 30 passengers.

The aircraft is outfitted with a unique 1×1 seating configuration, which will allow large groups unparalleled comfort. The ERJ 145 is ideal for collegiate and professional sports teams, weddings, and other large group charter.

“We are excited to bring on this new product for our customers and fill a need for large group travel,” Cheryl Janke, CEO of Prime Jet stated.

“While this is a new product for Prime Jet, our core values and standards remain the same as with our fleet of Gulfstream aircraft.  Prime Jet remains committed to finding solutions for private air travel and finding a way to ‘Yes’ for our clients,” she continued.

Prime Jet’s bases of operation for the new ERJ 145 will be similar to its floating fleet of Gulfstreams:  VNY, OPF, TEB, and TPA.
