European business aviation company KlasJet has finished 2018 with a big bang. The company has extended its fleet with three Boeing 737-500s. Growth of the fleet is one of the cornerstones of KlasJet’s strategic goals in 2019. Expansion is set to continue this year with plans to purchase four more Boeings.
“To succeed we need to focus on our customer’s experience. Their feedback guides us to further tailor our services, and our recent expansion is no exception. Insights towards potential business opportunities in new identified segments let us make the decision and double the fleet,“ says Dovydas Jurgelevicius, CEO at KlasJet.
At the moment, KlasJet is operating four aircraft – a Hawker 800XP, Bombardier CRJ200, Bombardier Challenger 850, and a Boeing 737-500. This fleet is proven to be the top choice among customers in Europe and the Middle East since 2013. With gained trust and expertise, the company is now entering a new stage of development.
All three new Boeing 737-500s are being prepared for their operations. Aircraft will be customized and uniquely designed including tailored technical specifications. Each 737 will be setup to meet the need of the particular customer segment.

The first aircraft will have 52 business class seats in exclusive red and black leather trim to have the best-in-class comfort. It will be operational as of the first quarter of 2019.
The second aircraft, a blue bird of the sky by design, will be equipped with an interchangeable interior that will be able to transform from 68 to 102 business class seats. Such flexibility is crucial to adjust offers for large VIP groups.

The aircraft is already being maintained at the KlasJet hangar in Lithuania and will start its operations no later than the second quarter of the year. The last addition to the fleet, following in the 2nd half of 2019, will be a special 737 with refined economy interior of 120 seats.
The project is being delivered by the sister company of Avia Solutions Group – AviaAM Leasing. The subsidiaries of the group – Jet Maintenance Solutions and FL Technics – are working together hand in hand to prepare the aircraft for successful operations.
