Surf Air Accepts Delivery of Initial Four Cessna Grand Caravan EX Aircraft from Textron



Surf Air Mobility, a regional air mobility platform, has taken delivery of four Cessna Grand Caravan EX turboprop aircraft from Textron Aviation. These four aircraft are the first deliveries of Surf Air’s previously announced fleet order with Textron Aviation. Surf Air is financing two of these aircraft through operating leases with ITC-AeroLeasing, an existing aircraft financing partner for Surf Air and an independent Japanese aircraft leasing and sales company.

“We’re excited to immediately deploy these first four Grand Caravans onto our network to further enhance the profitability of our airline operations,” Deanna White, CEO of Surf Air Mobility, said. “With our fleet order with Textron Aviation, we’re continuing to deliver on our Transformation Plan as every new Caravan will increase our operational efficiency and provide an even better experience for our passengers.”

Surf Air plans to use its fleet order to renew its existing fleet, bolster its existing network and launch new routes in regions across the country.

“We’re excited to partner with Surf Air Mobility to finance the initial deliveries of their Cessna Caravan fleet, and we believe in Surf Air’s leadership team and their ability to profitably grow their footprint with these new aircraft,” Mirika Nakayama, CEO of ITC-AeroLeasing, said.
