AirSprint, the largest fractional private jet operator in Canada, reported a 14% year-over-year increase from April 2024 to March 2025, with demand for its services continuing to climb throughout the first quarter. <a href="https://www.airsprint.com/be-inspired/industry-insights/your-canadian-private-flight-alternative">According to the company</a>, flight activity in the first three months of 2025 was up 12% year over year.
The company’s internal data shows that it now accounts for 29% of Canadian private jet departures—more than triple the share of its next closest competitor. That figure also surpasses the U.S. market share of fractional giant NetJets, which accounts for 15% of U.S. private jet activity, according to WingX data.
AirSprint has added four aircraft to its fleet since October, bringing its total to 40 jets as of March. The company said that post-pandemic growth remains strong even as travel patterns normalize, with high demand sustained across its base in Ontario and Quebec, as well as from secondary markets throughout Canada.
Company president and CEO James Elian attributed growth to strong utilization and flexible ownership models that allow customers to retain control over how and when to sell their fractional shares.&nbsp;
AirSprint currently serves more than 550 fractional owners and has operated more than 6,500 unique airport pairs across North and South America, Europe, and the Caribbean.
