“AI will not replace people, but it will redefine the standard for how leading companies operate and serve their Clients,” said Joshua Marc Hebert, Founder and CEO of Magellan Jets. "We have built proprietary platforms designed to create a smarter, faster, and more personal private aviation journey. By using AI and advanced technology to streamline the work behind the scenes, we are giving our people the tools and time to focus on what matters most: our Private Clients.

Vasi joins Magellan Jets from Zipcar, where he served as Chief Product Officer, leading technology strategy and investments across a complex, operationally intensive mobility platform. Earlier in his career, Vasi held product and leadership roles at Flexcar, TripAdvisor, and MathWorks, where he launched new consumer products, built deep partner integrations, and scaled client engagement through loyalty, pricing, and platform offerings. He brings more than 18 years of technology leadership experience to Magellan Jets.

The appointment builds directly on the growth strategy Magellan Jets announced in June 2026, when the company expanded the leadership roles of industry veterans Matthew Harris, Chief Strategy and Growth Officer, and Josh Lesnick, Chief Operating Officer, to accelerate its acquisition and platform expansion plans.
