Canadian fractional ownership provider AirSprint recently added its 37th aircraft—a Cessna Citation CJ3+—to its fleet as it builds on its long-term growth plan to meet increasing demand. The light jet is the 16th CJ3+ in AirSprint’s fleet, which is the largest in the fractional space in Canada.

In addition to the CJ3+, AirSprint’s fleet includes Embraer Praetor 500 and Legacy 450/500 midsize jets and Citation CJ2+ light jets. With offices in Toronto, Calgary, and Montreal, AirSprint provides services coast-to-coast in Canada, including from Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa, and the Maritimes.

"We're excited to welcome our 37th aircraft, which represents both the growth of our fleet and the strength of our company," said Jared Williams, v-p of operations and COO at AirSprint. "As demand for private aviation continues to rise, each new aircraft strengthens our ability to provide our fractional owners with greater flexibility, guaranteed access, and unparalleled service. Our focus on innovation and continuous improvement remains at the core of everything we do."
