Corporate flight departments manage private aviation operations for companies, executives, and high-net-worth individuals. These departments oversee aircraft scheduling, crew management, maintenance, and regulatory compliance — often under Part 91 — to ensure safe, efficient, and confidential travel.
Corporate flight departments operate a range of aircraft, from light jets to long-range business jets, and prioritize flexibility, discretion, and operational excellence. They coordinate with internal stakeholders, manage vendor relationships, and uphold high standards in service delivery and safety.
Careers in corporate flight departments include:
Pilots (Part 91, type-rated, international experience)
Flight attendants / cabin service professionals
Maintenance technicians / avionics specialists
Schedulers / dispatchers
Directors of aviation / operations managers
Joining a corporate flight department means working in a high-trust, mission-driven environment where professionalism, adaptability, and attention to detail are essential.
