PRESS RELEASE: TORONTO, ONTARIO - MARCH 12, 2021 (NEWSWIRE)
AirSprint Inc., the Canadian leader in Fractional Jet Ownership, is pleased to announce the following changes to its leadership, which took effect at the beginning of this year.
James A. Elian has been named as President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO). After twenty years with the company, James' contributions have been fundamental to the overall success of AirSprint – which today operates Canada's largest and North America's newest fleet of fractional aircraft. As President (since 2015), James has led AirSprint's daily operations and rapid growth – and continues to implement its strategic direction.
Jared Williams will take on the role of Chief Operating Officer (COO) and will also continue as Vice President, Operations. Jared's over twenty years of aviation experience is crucial to AirSprint's daily operations – as he provides oversight for safety, asset and fleet efficiency, regulatory compliance, operational reliability and Owner experience.
Judson T. Macor, who founded AirSprint in 2000, will continue as Chairman of the board. Judson's background as a commercial pilot, then a lawyer and with formal education in aeronautics, business and law, brings a unique perspective that enables the organization to continuously deliver exceptional levels of safety, efficiency and performance that enhance productivity.
"Who we are today is in great part a piece of where we came from, and I am indebted to all those who drove a start-up company into Canada's leading private Fractional Ownership company," said Judson T. Macor, Founder & Chairman of AirSprint. "I look forward to working with James and Jared in their new positions as we continue to serve the needs of our Fractional Owners and give them unrivalled access to turn-key travel experiences.
