Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based charter provider TLC Jet has partnered with American Airlines to allow private jet clients to earn AAdvantage miles and loyalty points on charter flights.&nbsp;&nbsp;
“This partnership bridges two worlds—the flexibility and efficiency of flying private with TLC Jet and the global reach of American Airlines,” said Justin Firestone, founder and president of TLC Jet.
TLC Jet is part of the TLC Aviation portfolio, which includes Privaira aircraft management and Toledo Jet maintenance services. American says it created the first airline loyalty program with the AAdvantage program, and the airline serves more than 350 destinations in 60-plus countries.
“Today’s travelers are seeking more premium experiences,” said Steve Johnson, American’s vice chair and chief strategy officer. “As a leading premium airline, we’re committed to exploring new ways we can elevate the journey for our customers both in the services we offer and those of our partners.”
