BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 10, 2026--
Magellan Jets, a leader in private aviation, today announced a redesigned Jet Card program built around Private Client travel patterns. Anchored by Advantage Routes, which deliver preferred pricing on the high-demand corridors most frequently flown by Magellan Jets Private Clients, the program is the first Jet Card solution designed around individual Client's specific annual flight needs, aircraft preference, and hourly commitment level. This advancement breaks from the private aviation industry’s standard 25-hour increment model by enabling Private Clients to purchase a customized number of hours based on their individual flying needs.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260610105066/en/
The program launches with two initial eastern region Advantage Routes and will expand to ten by Fall 2026, with new corridors added based on seasonal travel, holiday demand, and popular destinations.
"Private aviation has long sold the same product to every Client. We took a different approach by asking a simple question: how do our Clients actually fly?" said Josh Lesnick, Chief Operating Officer at Magellan Jets. "The introduction of Advantage Routes offers preferred pricing on the trips our Clients fly most, made possible by our asset-light model that lets us price around demand instead of fleet logistics. Short-leg waivers are another new benefit. A Client flying from Boston to Nantucket, for example, can save up to $10,000 on a single trip through the program's short-leg waiver benefit."
In addition to providing Magellan Jets Clients with the opportunity to purchase a Jet Card with any number of hours they choose at or above a 25-hour minimum, the company has launched enhanced benefits that unlock at the 25-, 50-, and 100-hour commitment thresholds. Scaled benefits include:
Within each commitment level, Clients can select Category Jet Cards (Light, Midsize, Super-Midsize, or Heavy jets) or Premium Jet Cards (Phenom 300, Challenger 350, or Gulfstream G450/550), pairing hourly commitment with the aircraft that fits how they fly.
Core benefits available to all Clients include guaranteed 24/7/365 availability with zero blackout dates, fuel price protection, dedicated Private Aviation Advisors, guaranteed mechanical recovery, and no peak-day surcharges. Additionally, Clients benefit from surcharge-free aircraft interchange, giving Clients the flexibility to adapt to changing trip needs without being penalized for the change.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft believes he was playing as well as anyone at his position when he tore his right anterior cruciate ligament last November.
He sees no reason why that should change once he’s back on the field — and he believes that return ought to come as soon as Green Bay’s Sept. 13 season opener at Minnesota.
“I’m not really buying into the (idea that) people come back off an injury and aren’t the same,” Kraft said Wednesday during mandatory minicamp. “People come back off their injury — if you’re not coming back off your injury the same, then what are you doing? What were you doing your entire rehab?”
Kraft said he expects to open training camp on the physically unable to perform list but he should be ready for the start of the season. Kraft hasn’t played since getting carted off Lambeau Field on Nov. 2 during a 16-13 loss to the Carolina Panthers.
“With how I feel, I would say I’m going to get all the conditioning I need in camp to start Week 1 on no pitch count,” he said.
Kraft’s injury ended what had been the best season of his career.
The 2023 third-round draft pick out of South Dakota State caught 32 passes for 489 yards in eight games. Although Kraft played fewer than half of the Packers’ games, his six touchdown catches tied for the team lead.
The week before his injury, Kraft caught seven passes for 143 yards and two touchdowns in a 35-25 victory at Pittsburgh.
“I thought that at a combination of the do-it-all Y, which is me, that there wasn’t another guy in the league that was doing it as well as I was,” Kraft said. “Some people might think I’m delusional to say that, but … the film is going to speak for itself. Outside zone, inside zone, screen game, down the field, just as far as putting it all together, I felt like I was in a great spot.”
Kraft’s rehabilitation was particularly frustrating because he was unable to help the Packers when they collapsed down the stretch. Green Bay lost its final four regular-season games and blew a 21-3 lead in a 31-27 NFC wild-card playoff loss at Chicago.
“I watched every game from the couch Week 8 and on last year, so the hardest part for me is I’ve always been a leader with the way I do things physically, not necessarily with how I talk and present myself to the team in other settings,” Kraft said. “So losing that ability to show the boys, this is how we do it, this is the physical standard, this is the precedent, I’d say that was the hardest part for me.”
Kraft said he’s now feeling better than he expected at this point in his recovery.
“I think the good Lord put us on this world to endure and there have been so many things I’ve found out about myself through this process — good and bad,” Kraft said. “There are things about myself that I was able to correct. Strengths I’m going to be able to show everyone when this is all said and done. … I don’t think something like this had to happen to me to get better. I think I had the right mindset prior to my injury, but now I know what it’s about and I know how much I love this game and all the support system I’ve had to get past it.”
Kraft also knows how much he would love to stay in Green Bay for years to come.
The Packers already have signed wide receivers Jayden Reed and Christian Watson to long-term deals over the last two months. Kraft figures to be next in line, as his contract is set to expire after the season and the Packers don’t want to see him enter free agency.
“We put it all together, it can be very dangerous,” Reed said this week. “It’s really no limit to it. Tuck’s a dog, man. It’s on tape.”
Kraft didn’t want to comment on contract talks Wednesday beyond expressing his hopes in getting a deal done.
“I want to play for this organization my entire career,” Kraft said. “I’m spoiled to have been drafted here and this is all I know. Green and gold is all I know, so we’d like to keep it that way.”
