Private Charter Operator Capital Jets Adds Learjet 60XR to Growing Fleet

Private aviation operator Capital Jets has added a Learjet 60XR to its charter fleet, a move the company says reflects steady growth in demand for private travel among business clients.

The midsize jet offers longer range and faster cruising speeds than some of the smaller aircraft in the operator's existing lineup, allowing it to serve a broader range of routes.

The expansion comes as private charter operators across the industry report sustained interest from corporate travelers looking to avoid the delays and congestion increasingly common at major commercial airports.
