Committed to using Sustainable Aviation Fuels whenever possible, Fleet provides the finest hospitality in private aviation and the most environmentally responsible way to fly privately. Passengers achieve a remarkable 90% reduction in carbon vs. business jet travel and are offered various carbon offset opportunities.

New York is the group’s third route and first outside California. New York Fleet Club will provide 200 members and their guests exclusive access to custom configured Boeing 737s. Annual membership packages begin at $50,000 for 20 round trips. Designed for private flyers seeking a more environmentally responsible, reliable and sensibly priced way to travel between South Florida and New York. 

New members are referred by existing members, fostering a sense of community. They’ll enjoy benefits like same-day booking, no cancelation fees, valet and off-site car storage. Passengers save two hours versus flying commercial and tens of thousands verses flying private. The Fleet is pet friendly and animals are permitted to fly onboard.

The New York Fleet Club will fly Boeing Next Generation 737 airliners catered by white-glove in-flight service with an industry leading crew-to-guest ratio. The full leather seats are in a two by two first class configuration, offering incomparable space and service versus other shared private competitors.

Flights are scheduled for every Thursday, Friday and Sunday and additionally around holidays. Departing MIA (Signature) at 11am, arriving to ISP in Long Island, NY (Modern Aviation) at 1:30pm. ISP is a little over an hour drive or 24 minute helicopter from midtown Manhattan at that time. The return flights depart ISP at 3pm and arrives in MIA at 5:30, after the traffic and in time for dinner.

“I am the foremost expert in the niche field of private flying clubs and have been operating two similar programs on the West Coast for 15 years. I have arranged more than 1700 private 737 flights – all without a single cancellation! After years considering where to bring the program next, we decided the South Florida – New York was our ideal first East Coast market as it is the most trafficked private jet gateway in the world. We are thrilled with the response from our esteemed Founding Membership and we are on track to sellout Long Island’s membership by year’s end,” Michele Sullivan, Founder of The Fleet Clubs. 

The Fleet Club’s booking and concierge services are available through a proprietary app and allows for crowd-sourcing heli and car shuttle options to NYC and the Hamptons. 

“Miami and New York have become closer than ever during the pandemic. Through my hospitality company’s development of private clubs in Miami, Palm Beach and New York, we have tapped into our existing members to establish New York Fleet Club. Our bespoke 737s offer the zenith of shared private travel both in personal space and in-flight service. From Loro Piana bedding to cut crystal glassware – ours is the finest service in the sky,” said The Fleet Clubs Founder and CEO Bernard Schwartz

Private air travel is one of the hardest industries to decarbonize. The Fleet Club’s planes are painted in a distinct green livery, a reminder of the sustainable vision. “We’re proud to offer the most environmentally responsible way to fly private. Our Clubs offer members a new type of luxury carpooling. The iconic ‘Fleet Green’ liveries are a nod to the 90% reduction in carbon emissions we offer versus heavy jet travel. Most of our members otherwise fly private, so the annual carbon savings are run into the hundreds of millions of tons. The Fleet Clubs never fly empty legs, we have committed to use Sustainable Aviation Fuels whenever possible and we offer members additional carbon offset opportunities.” said Rachael Ruddick, Partner at The Fleet Clubs and former Communications head of Dom Perignon.
