Vaunt Surpasses $1.5M ARR in First Year, 100,000 Downloads, and 590 Flights—Fueling Unforgettable Travel Experiences

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Volato Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Volato”) (NYSE American: SOAR) announced today that Vaunt, its fast-growing private aviation platform, has reached a major milestone, reporting $1.5 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) within its first year, a 50% increase since mid-2024. Additionally, Vaunt has surpassed 100,000 app downloads and completed 598 flights in 2024, reinforcing its role as a key growth driver for Volato.

“These numbers don’t just reflect growth—they show that Vaunt is delivering something people want: the thrill of spontaneous, unforgettable travel,” said Tim Graves, VP of Marketing & Operations at Vaunt. “Vaunt isn’t about planning a trip. It’s about seeing an opportunity, grabbing it, and turning it into a memory that sticks with you.”

Vaunt: The Ultimate Nostalgia Maker

Vaunt isn’t about getting from point A to point B. It’s about what happens when you get there. It’s about that moment when you open the app, spot a flight that excites you, and see that you’re first on the waitlist. Suddenly, you’re on your way—not just to a new destination, but to a story you’ll be telling for years.

Maybe it’s the jet itself. Maybe it’s a city you’ve never visited. Or a familiar place experienced in a way you never have before. Maybe it’s about the friends you bring along. Whatever it is, Vaunt isn’t just a way to fly - it’s a platform for creating moments you’ll always remember.

Expanding the Possibilities

Vaunt continues to grow, integrating flyExclusive flights into its platform in late 2024, adding Citation Excel/XLS aircraft, and expanding the range of experiences available to members. Each of these additions opens up new opportunities for members to seize the unexpected and make it their own.

A Business with Momentum

With double-digit ARR growth, increasing membership engagement, and an expanding flight network, Vaunt is proving its ability to scale and generate strong, recurring revenue. Investors can take confidence in its clear growth trajectory, increasing brand recognition, and strategic positioning within the Volato ecosystem.
