Delta AirElite Business Jets has added a new Citation X business jet to
its operating certificate. The aircraft, which is based at the San Jose
(Calif.) International Airport, joins Delta AirElite`s fleet through a
charter management agreement.

With access to more than 400 business jets strategically positioned
throughout the United States, Delta AirElite continues to expand its

“We are adding aircraft through charter management agreements to meet the
ever-growing demand for air charter service,” said Michael B. Green,
president and chief executive officer of Delta AirElite Business Jets.

option to meet their travel needs and underscores our commitment to
service convenience.”

Charter management agreements allow Delta AirElite to increase aircraft
availability without large capital commitments and to offer on-demand
charter service on a broad base of high-quality, well-maintained corporate
jets. The agreements also enable Delta AirElite to offer an attractive
option for corporations and aircraft owners who want to lower aircraft
ownership costs by having their corporate jets certified for Delta
AirElite`s commercial charter operations. The additional aircraft are also
support member travel for Delta AirElite`s innovative Fleet Membership
