Executive Jet Management Earns 10th Consecutive "Best Charter Service" Award

April 25, 2007 (Cincinnati, OH) -- Executive Jet® Management (EJM), a leading provider of worldwide private jet charter and aircraft management services, was recognized for the tenth consecutive year as “Best Charter Service” by Professional Pilot magazine subscribers in the 2007 voting of its annual PRASE (Preferences Regarding Aviation Services and Equipment) survey.

“We are pleased that Executive Jet Management has again been recognized as the best charter service by flight crews and customers. We are particularly proud that we have achieved this honor for ten straight years,” said Executive Jet Management’s President and CEO, Albert C. Pod. “This award is a result of our dedicated efforts to satisfy our customers’ unique travel requirements. With our staff of over 35 dedicated charter service managers, in concert with hundreds of aviation professionals working behind the scenes, we can handle virtually any customer request.”

"Executive Jet Management has won this award 10 times in a row," said Professional Pilot Publisher Murray Smith. "It is extremely commendable and it is a clear indication about EJM's capabilities. EJM is certainly satisfying the market out there. It has many enthusiastic customers who vote in our survey, and it is quite evident that EJM has done an outstanding job."

“Many clients tell us that we treat them as if they are our only customer,” said Jeff Cropper, Executive Jet Management’s senior vice president, charter services. “That is why we believe they choose us for jet charter services time and time again. And, as their travel needs vary, we provide a full suite of private aviation solutions. As a NetJets company, we offer fractional shares and Marquis cards.”

Executive Jet Management’s customer base consists of Fortune 500 companies, political dignitaries, and VIPs from around the world. Music group Rascal Flatts recently endorsed Executive Jet Management’s charter services by stating, “We can't ask for anything better than the excellent service we get from the great people that support us at Executive Jet Management. We fly on EJM and appreciate all the extra effort it takes to get us where we need to go.”

To continue to enhance Executive Jet Management customer service, Cropper said the company is encouraging its entire workforce to “think nationally but act locally.” In the past six months, Executive Jet Management has added charter service offices in Dallas and Fort Lauderdale. The company also provides charter services from offices in Cincinnati, Columbus, Chicago, San Jose, and Teterboro, NJ.
