As at September 2023, Vista’s total flight hours grew over 22% globally across its leading VistaJet and XO brands. The Group’s strong growth included rapid expansion in Asia, which witnessed an impressive 68% growth rate in flight hours year-on-year. The VistaJet Program membership delivered an increase of over 40% globally and 16% in Asia year-on-year. Add-on hours by existing Members grew 46% year-on-year for Vista and 13% in Asia as demand for private travel remains strong.
The demand for ultra-long-range travel to and from Asia has been a significant factor propelling this growth. This has been serviced by the Vista Members’ fleet of more than 360 aircraft covering all categories, from short-range aircraft to its flagship Global 7500, the largest and longest-range business jets in the world, able to fly 17 hours non-stop.
VistaJet recently launched the aviation industry’s first 360 Wellness program, spanning four continents and 20 disciplines. The program provides comprehensive pre-flight, in-flight, post-flight and at-destination wellbeing experiences. The VistaJet Wellness program is meticulously tailored for its Members, and the seamless services help passengers stay at their best throughout their travels.
In the lead-up to its 20th anniversary in 2024, VistaJet will continue to pioneer better ways to fly and live with its exclusive offerings.
* The last AsBAA Icons of Aviation Awards took place in 2019. The event was placed on hold between 2020-2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
