CINCINNATI, October 6, 2003 -- Delta AirElite Business Jets announced today the launch of Fleet Membership Select, powered by Bombardier Flexjet*. As an extension to Delta AirElite’s popular Fleet Membership Program, this new offering will provide its Fleet Select Members 25-hour increments of “occupied” time in their choice of Bombardier Learjet* 31A, Learjet 45, Learjet 60 or Challenger* 604 aircraft.
Fleet Membership Select is the latest offering within Delta AirElite’s Fleet Membership Program. Fleet Select members gain access to the benefits of the Flexjet system** without a long-term commitment or capital investment.
