Vaunt Moves Beyond Private Jet Booking with End-to-End Travel Capability

NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Volato Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Volato”) (NYSE American: SOAR), a leader in private aviation innovation, today announced at the NBAA Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference 2025 that Vaunt is expanding its private aviation platform to offer complete trip planning. In addition to booking private jet flights, subscribers will book hotel stays and commercial airline tickets directly within Vaunt’s “Complete the Trip” and “Travel Center” features—empowering travelers to build full itineraries around their private aviation experiences.

From One-Way Adventure to a Fully-Curated Getaway

Vaunt flights are typically one-way, spontaneous private jet journeys—the kind of exciting opportunity that sparks an unforgettable story. With this enhancement, subscribers will seamlessly complete the adventure by adding a return leg and hotel accommodations, all through Vaunt’s integrated platform.

“Vaunt has always been about delivering that adrenaline-pumping moment when you say yes to a spontaneous private jet flight,” said Tim Graves, VP of Marketing & Operations at Vaunt. “Now, we’re helping our members go beyond the jet. We’re giving them the tools to turn a one-way flight into a full, curated getaway—whether it’s a weekend escape or an impromptu adventure.”

Full Control in One Platform

The new capability makes it easier than ever for Vaunt users to book flights, secure accommodations, and improve their priority on Vaunt’s private jet waitlists—all from a single platform. By simplifying the logistics, Vaunt is removing barriers to spontaneity and making private aviation even more accessible to modern travelers who crave flexibility.

Strengthening the Network Effect

This launch supports Vaunt’s broader strategy to drive subscriber growth, increase average revenue per user (ARPU), and generate more engagement across its expanding operator network. Each new subscriber brings additional demand for operators’ unsold flights, furthering Volato’s mission of solving inefficiencies in private aviation.

Successful Presence at Schedulers & Dispatchers 2025

Vaunt’s presence at the conference highlighted growing demand from both operators and travelers. The company held high-value meetings with scheduling and dispatch professionals and confirmed plans to further expand its operator base in the coming weeks.

With 111 aircraft already on the platform, Vaunt’s operator network includes JetVia, Koury Aviation, flyExclusive, and others. This expansion, combined with new subscriber-facing features, positions Vaunt as one of the most dynamic and scalable offerings in private aviation today.
