Flexjet has just landed the biggest private aviation equity deal in history, an $800 million boost from L Catterton, KSL Capital Partners, and the J. Safra Group.

The move strengthens Flexjet’s push into ultra-premium aviation, blending luxury branding with global aviation infrastructure. While the deal doesn’t make Flexjet a part of LVMH, it does tie the jet provider to a world of 24 elite brands.

L Catterton, closely aligned with luxury titan LVMH, brings deep experience in consumer insight, brand expansion, and premium product positioning. “It’s a strategic fit,” said Flexjet Chairman Kenn Ricci. “They understand luxury and time. Their backing gives us room to evolve into something much greater.”

Of the total investment, $600 million will be channelled into expanding infrastructure, including private terminals and exclusive in-flight experiences. Already, Flexjet operates a global fleet across multiple categories, including fractional ownership and charter services. They also have a substantial infrastructure, including maintenance facilities, private terminals, and operational control centres. Its 2023 launch of a $50 million operations centre in Cleveland marked the beginning of this transformation.

What truly sets Flexjet apart is its bespoke model. From Red Label interiors to partnerships with Riva Yachts and Bentley, the brand offers tailored travel experiences. With LVMH’s influence, Ricci hinted at “Flexjet-only” access to limited-edition Louis Vuitton releases or themed luxury cabins. “We’re not just selling flights, we’re curating experiences,” he said.
