Jet Linx names Pearlman as senior vice president of marketing.

Jet Linx names Pearlman as senior vice president of marketing. Pearlman held positions at Marquis Jet Partners and NetJets before moving to luxury and fashion with Tiffany's and Barneys New York. Former Marquis Jet Partners and NetJets marketing and sales executive Pamela Pearlman is returning to private aviation with Jet Linx. She is the new senior vice president of marketing. Pearlman was most recently the chief marketing officer of Reproductive Medicine Associates of New York. Since departing NetJets in 2013, where she managed global strategic alliances, Pearlman has had stints at Barneys New York, Tiffany & Co., and Michael Kors. Executive Chairman Jamie Walker tells Private Jet Card Comparisons, "Pamela is a proven marketing leader with the strategic vision, brand instinct, and growth mindset to help lead Jet Linx into its next chapter." He adds, "As we continue to strengthen our business and expand our services, we are confident Pamela will elevate our team, sharpen our brand position, and help drive meaningful growth across the company." 'This role feels like a full-circle moment. I began my career in private aviation nearly 20 years ago at Marquis Jet & NetJets, where I spent a decade helping build one of the industry's most iconic brands. Since then, I've had the opportunity to lead marketing across luxury retail, healthcare, and consumer brands - experiences that have shaped how I build brands, drive growth, and create meaningful customer experiences. Now, I'm thrilled to bring those experiences back to the industry where it all began.' Jet Linx news. The move comes at a busy time for Jet Linx. A new supplemental lift program is designed to attract more aircraft management clients. Since Walker's return to the corner office last year, Jet Linx has also recalibrated to its original local base strategy. In May, it said it had signed five new base partners, including for a new Los Angeles base. It is its first West Coast location. Jet Linx has been ranked among the 10 largest U.S. private jet operators based on charter and fractional hours for over a decade.

Jet Linx enhances maintenance operations with Veryon Tracking & Defect Analysis.

Jet Linx enhances maintenance operations with Veryon Tracking & Defect Analysis. * Business Wire * Apr 30, 2026 SAN FRANCISCO-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Apr 30, 2026- Veryon, a leading provider of information services and software solutions for the aviation industry, is pleased to announce that Jet Linx Aviation, a private jet travel company providing Jet Card Membership and Aircraft Management services, has partnered with Veryon to modernize its maintenance and reliability program. Veryon Tracking and Veryon Defect Analysis efficiently track maintenance requirements for airworthiness, reduce aircraft downtime, and increase visibility across its fleet of approximately 100 managed aircraft. Veryon Tracking and Veryon Defect Analysis efficiently track maintenance requirements for airworthiness, reduce aircraft downtime, and increase visibility across its fleet of approximately 100 managed aircraft. Jet Linx operates a multi-based, mixed fleet of business jets under both Part 91 and Part 135 regulations, managing aircraft on behalf of individual owners while supporting high-touch Jet Card and Charter operations. At this level of operational complexity, it is imperative that their maintenance tracking system aligns with other business initiatives and grows with their operations as their fleet continues to expand. With Veryon Tracking and Defect Analysis, Jet Linx has moved to a fully integrated platform that centralizes maintenance tracking, streamlines compliance workflows, and enables logbook data intelligence to manage and eliminate repeat defects. Veryon connects the maintenance lifecycle so teams can track work, access trusted technical content, troubleshoot faster, maintain inspection readiness, and improve reliability through shared data and workflows. Powered by Veryon AIRE, the platform provides real-time visibility into maintenance and inventory, surfaces recurring defect issues, identifies the most effective fixes, and helps standardize repair confidence across technicians, regardless of experience level. "We evaluated several platforms, but what really set Veryon apart was the depth of expertise behind the technology and how advanced they are in regards to the Defect Analysis product," said Jason Vanis, Senior Vice President of Operations at Jet Linx. "Their team understands the realities of running a complex operation like ours, and that confidence in their people was just as important as the platform itself." This transition reflects a broader shift among business aviation operators toward modernized, consolidated systems that leverage a unified data architecture to streamline maintenance planning, reduce repeat aircraft discrepancies, and keep aircraft available for their clients. "We're seeing a clear shift across business aviation toward unified, data-driven maintenance strategies, especially as fleets grow and operational complexity increases," said Bethany Little, Chief Executive Officer of Veryon. "Jet Linx has been a great partner as we both work to modernize aviation with the use of technology. They are innovative, forward-thinking, and will increase their edge as they grow their operations while limiting complexity due to this platform change and investment." Veryon Tracking provides a single system of record for planning and executing maintenance, ensuring accurate tracking of safety requirements and continuous compliance. At the same time, Veryon Defect Analysis uses AI and natural language processing to identify recurring defects early, even when logbook language or ATA coding varies. The result is a more connected, data-driven maintenance operation that reduces administrative burden, improves efficiency, and supports higher aircraft availability across Jet Linx's growing fleet. Veryon Defect Analysis supports more than 25% of the world's commercial fleet, and with its recent expansion into business aviation, now includes more than 300 business jets worldwide. This growing adoption reflects a broader shift among high-utilization operators toward earlier visibility into repeat defects and emerging reliability risks. Veryon will be demonstrating Veryon Defect Analysis and Veryon Tracking firsthand at the NBAA Maintenance Conference from May 5-7, 2026, in New Orleans, LA. Visit Veryon at booth #518. About Veryon Veryon is the leading provider of aviation software and information services, trusted by over 5,500 customers, 75,000 maintenance professionals, and more than 100 OEMs in nearly 150 countries.

Jet Linx introduces new Owner Aircraft Exchange to eliminate downtime for aircraft owners.

Jet Linx introduces new Owner Aircraft Exchange to eliminate downtime for aircraft owners. PR Newswire Today at 9:01am PDT By leveraging its nationwide fleet, private jet operator launches new program where aircraft owners can exchange aircraft when theirs is down for maintenance OMAHA, Neb., April 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Jet Linx has announced the launch of its new Owner Aircraft Exchange, the industry's most innovative supplemental aircraft solution designed exclusively to serve its managed fleet of aircraft owners nationwide. As the private aviation industry faces increased demand and extended wait times for maintenance, repairs, and engine overhauls, the new program provides guaranteed supplemental aircraft at hourly rates similar to an owner flying on their own aircraft whenever their jet is unavailable due to scheduled or unscheduled maintenance events. According to research by Private Jet Card Comparisons (PJCC), over 90% of private aviation users cite time savings as their primary reason for flying private. Additionally, unexpected Aircraft on Ground (AOG) events, also known as unscheduled maintenance events, can severely impact the value of aircraft ownership. Through Owner Aircraft Exchange, participating aircraft owners may elect to receive a minimum of 10-hours of supplemental flight time annually. In return, owners provide an equivalent number of hours of availability on their aircraft to support other aircraft owners in the program. This allows aircraft owners to fly at highly cost-effective rates equivalent to the aircraft's Direct Operating Cost (DOC) on a pay-as-you-go basis, with no requirement to use the requested hours, they're simply available when needed. Unlike standard industry aircraft management programs that require aircraft owners to pay retail hourly rates for replacement aircraft, which can cost owners tens of thousands of dollars per day during maintenance periods, the Owner Aircraft Exchange leverages the scale of the entire Jet Linx fleet of aircraft nationwide, located across its 22 bases of operation. This closed-network approach provides the most cost-effective supplemental aircraft program in the industry, preserving the company's rigorous safety standards while ensuring aircraft owners avoid exorbitant third-party supplemental fees for replacement aircraft. "While the private aviation industry often shares the spotlight with flashy amenities, celebrities, and sports stars, the true ultimate benefit of owning a private jet is to keep moving on your schedule," said Jamie Walker, Executive Chairman of Jet Linx. "The last thing an aircraft owner should worry about is how they will get to their next destination when their aircraft has an unscheduled, or scheduled, maintenance event. The Owner Aircraft Exchange represents an innovative extension of its client-first philosophy, ensuring that its aircraft owners keep moving seamlessly and cost-effectively, fully within the secure and trusted Jet Linx community." The Owner Aircraft Exchange rolls out to the nationwide Jet Linx fleet of aircraft owners May 1st, with the 2026 enrollment period running during the month of April.
