For those passengers who had grown to enjoy DayJet’s air-taxi service and find themselves missing on-demand air transportation since the operator suspended its services last week, other air-taxi companies are offering to fill the gap. SATSair, ImagineAir, and North American Jet, all members of the Air Taxi Association (ATXA), provide service to all 60 of the communities in the Southeastern U.S. where DayJet formerly served more than 2,400 members. The carriers operate a combined fleet of over 30 Cirrus SR-22 and Eclipse 500 aircraft. “DayJet shined a bright light upon the emerging next-generation air-taxi industry and it is our duty to help affected passengers and communities,” said ATXA President Joe Leader. The companies are offering discounts and price matches to DayJet customers.
SATSair and ImagineAir operate SR-22s, and North American Jet operates E500 jets. Meanwhile, much of DayJet’s fleet is on the ramp outside Eclipse’s Gainseville, Fla. facility.
