Wheels Up Experience Inc. is a membership-driven private aviation company that provides on-demand charter flights and flight card services to corporate clients and high-net-worth individuals. The company operates a combination of owned and managed aircraft, including turboprops and light to midsize jets, and supplements its fleet through a network of partner operators. Its digital platform allows members to book flights, manage itineraries and access empty-leg opportunities with real-time pricing and availability.
Through tiered membership programs, Wheels Up offers flexible access to private air travel without the long-term commitments typically associated with fractional ownership. Members can choose from a variety of options, including flat-rate flight cards, customizable charter solutions and ad hoc bookings. The company also provides concierge services, ground transportation coordination and specialized event and group travel arrangements for corporate offsites, sports teams and entertainment clients.
Founded in 2013 by aviation entrepreneur Kenny Dichter, Wheels Up has grown rapidly through organic expansion and strategic partnerships. In early 2021, the business completed a merger with a special purpose acquisition company and rebranded as Wheels Up Experience, positioning itself as a comprehensive private aviation lifestyle provider. Headquartered in New York, the company maintains regional operations and customer support centers across North America, with growing international reach in Europe and Canada.
Under the leadership of Founder and Chief Executive Officer Kenny Dichter, Wheels Up Experience continues to invest in its digital booking infrastructure and fleet optimization. The company collaborates with industry partners to enhance safety protocols and sustainability initiatives, aiming to streamline private air travel while maintaining high standards of service and operational reliability.
