JetSuiteX Launches Burbank-to-Concord EMB-135 Service

Charter operator JetSuite is expanding its fleet with the addition of 10 Embraer EMB-135s and launching a new public charter service with regular scheduled flights in EMB-135s between Burbank and Concord, Calif., and Las Vegas and Concord. The new Embraers are the largest in the JetSuite fleet, which includes Phenom 100s and Cessna Citation CJ3s.  The inaugural JetSuiteX flight from Burbank to Concord is scheduled for April 19, followed by thrice-a-day weekday service between the city pair. Concord-to-Las Vegas service starts with two flights on Friday evenings, with two Las Vegas-to-Concord returns on Sunday afternoons. Burbank operations will take place at the Atlantic Aviation FBO, with valet parking for passengers. At Concord, passengers have access to free parking at the former Pacific Southwest Airlines airline terminal, which JetSuite has leased. “Concord hasn’t had service in 24 years,” said JetSuite CEO Alex Wilcox.  Advanced prices for the Burbank-Concord one-way start at $109. The EMB-135s have been refurbished by New United Goderich in Huron Park, Ontario (Canada). Passenger cabins are equipped with 30 seats with at least 36-inch seat pitch with three seats per row. To keep the seat number at 30 for Part 135 requirements, two rows of seats were removed, plus all overhead bins were removed and interior plastic replaced with leather. Three-quarter-inch Nomex was added to improve soundproofing, and all seats have power ports. Gogo airborne Internet connectivity is free for passengers.
