Fall 2026 | Company News, Team Highlights & What's Ahead
THE HOLIDAYS ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER
Your Holiday Plans, Our Priority
The holiday season is quickly approaching, and travel schedules are already beginning to fill up! Whether you're heading somewhere warm, visiting family, or planning a winter getaway, our team is here to make your travel experience seamless from takeoff to touchdown.
With Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's right around the corner, we encourage you to reach out early to secure your preferred aircraft and travel dates.
Wherever the season takes you, we'd love to help get you there.
As we prepare for a busy season ahead, we also wanted to share a few exciting updates happening across the Aviation Advisor team.
WELCOMING a NEW FACE TO THE FLIGHT DECK
Our flight team continues to grow! We're excited to welcome Michael Brands as our newest Citation Jet Second in Command (SIC).
He joins our team as we continue to strengthen our flight operations and provide the exceptional service our clients have come to expect.
We're happy to have Michael on board and look forward to seeing him grow with Aviation Advisor!
GOOD FOOD, GREAT COMPANY
Pizza in the Hangar 2026
There's nothing quite like bringing people together over delicious pizza, especially when it's served right inside an aircraft hangar!
Our annual Pizza in the Hangar event was another wonderful afternoon filled with freshly made, wood-fired pizza, great conversations, and plenty of familiar and new faces.
A special thank you to the North American Pizza & Culinary Academy for serving up incredible pizzas and to everyone who joined us. We loved opening our doors, catching up with friends and neighbors, and sharing a little of what makes Aviation Advisor special.
Until next year!
A FRESH LOOK, SAME PERSONALIZED SERVICE
Our New Website Is Live!
We've given our online home a refresh, and we're excited to share it with you!
Our newly launched website offers a fresh look at Aviation Advisor, making it easier than ever to explore our charter services, aircraft fleet, aircraft management solutions, and more.
While our website may look a little different, our commitment remains the same: providing personalized aviation solutions with the service, attention to detail, and expertise you know and trust.
We invite you to take a look around!
TAKING TEAMWORK OUT TO THE BALLGAME
A Summer of Baseball & Team Bonding
It's not all airplanes around here!
This year, our team traded the hangar for the ballpark on two occasions, cheering on the Kenosha Kingfish in June and enjoying a Milwaukee Brewers game in September.
Both outings gave us a chance to step away from our daily routines, spend time together outside the office, and enjoy a little friendly baseball rivalry.
We're grateful for opportunities like these to strengthen the connections that make our team so special, both in and out of the hangar.
Inspired to Lead
Members of our Aviation Advisor team recently attended the INSPIRE Leadership Conference, a day dedicated to personal and professional growth. Through engaging speakers and fresh perspectives, our team gained valuable insights on positive leadership, teamwork, and making a meaningful impact. We're excited to bring that inspiration back to our team and the work we do every day!
