flyExclusive announces S-4 effectiveness on Jet.AI transaction

flyExclusive (FLYX) announced that the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed in connection with its previously announced transaction with Jet.AI (JTAI) has been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.The effectiveness of the S-4 marks a key milestone in advancing the transaction toward JTAI stockholder approval and closing, which is expected to continue expanding flyExclusive’s scale through the acquisition of Jet.AI’s aviation operating business, including Citation and HondaJet aircraft and customers, and growth capital expansion while positioning flyExclusive to accelerate the deployment of capital directly into revenue-generating assets. Upon closing, flyExclusive expects to integrate these aviation assets into its vertically integrated platform, immediately enhancing network capacity and utilization while capturing incremental demand across both retail and wholesale channels. The transaction is structured to convert capital directly into revenue-generating assets and contracted demand, consistent with the Company’s disciplined growth strategy. The Company expects to deploy capital to support near-term fleet expansion, including the planned delivery of three Citation CJ3 aircraft beginning in 2027, further supporting the Company’s fleet modernization initiative. These aircraft are expected to add high-demand capacity across the network to support growing demand across both retail and wholesale channels. The transaction is also expected to enhance liquidity and provide additional financial flexibility to support continued investment in fleet, maintenance infrastructure, and operational scaling initiatives.
