Wheels Up Launches New Membership Portfolio

The Wheels Up Signature Membership launches guaranteed nationwide access to the company's modernized fleet while delivering industry-leading choice, flexibility and value for today's private fliers

ATLANTA, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Wheels Up Experience Inc. (NYSE: UP), one of the world's leading private aviation companies and the first to provide seamless global aviation solutions across private and commercial travel, today announced the Wheels Up Signature Membership, a tailored premium private aviation solution that elevates how members fly. With guaranteed nationwide availability and access 365 days a year to Wheels Up's premium fleet of Phenom 300 series and Challenger 300 series aircraft, the Wheels Up Signature Membership is redefining what it means to fly private.

"When we announced our fleet modernization plan in October of last year, it included plans to integrate our premium Phenom 300 series and Challenger 300 series aircraft into our programmatic offering by the end of 2025," said George Mattson, Chief Executive Officer. "The new Wheels Up Signature Membership does just that, offering guaranteed nationwide access to our modernized fleet of best-in-class aircraft, along with the reliability, flexibility, and premium experience fliers have come to expect from Wheels Up. With a low cost of entry into the program, seamless access to our global charter offering, and the ability to merge premium commercial and private travel through our first-of-its-kind strategic partnership with Delta Air Lines, we're raising the bar for delivering the most customer-centric private aviation solutions in the industry."

The Wheels Up Signature Membership – the most complete, connected way to fly globally
The new Wheels Up Signature Membership is the embodiment of the best the private aviation industry has to offer. For a small monthly fee and minimum $200,000 pre-paid deposit, Wheels Up Signature Members enjoy guaranteed nationwide access and guaranteed recovery for the company's premium Challenger 300 and Phenom 300 series aircraft – two of the most reliable, desirable models on the market. 

The new Wheels Up Signature Membership is the most flexible way to fly – offering members access to the right aircraft for the right mission, wherever they want to travel. The low deposit minimums represent an attractive entry point to the program, and the comparative cost of flights elevate the value proposition compared to other fractional and programmatic offerings on the market, while program enhancements include no interchange fees, same day round trip discounts, and guaranteed global access and recovery in the U.S. Signature Members can access the full suite of aviation solutions available through Wheels Up, from guaranteed nationwide access to the company's controlled fleet of Phenom and Challenger aircraft within the contiguous U.S. – plus a 225-mile radius beyond the coastline; to global charter of private aircraft accessing thousands of safety-vetted aircraft worldwide through Wheels Up's leading global charter business, Air Partner; to booking on Delta Air Lines' industry-leading commercial network; or hybrid travel utilizing both Wheels Up and Delta. This enables customers to curate their travel trip by trip, and segment by segment, across the widest array of solutions available in the industry.

As a part of the new Wheels Up Signature Membership, fliers also have the option to choose which access plan is right for them. The Dynamic Plan is designed for private fliers who prioritize flexibility and value, with dynamic, market-driven pricing based on seasonality, day of week, and destination. Alternatively, the Fixed Plan is tailored to private leisure or corporate fliers who value the consistency and predictability of competitive fixed hourly rates. Under both plans, Signature Members unlock elevated privileges via flight volume and deposit size.

Through the company's strategic partnership with Delta Air Lines, members enjoy Delta SkyMiles^® Diamond Medallion^® Status; can apply funds on deposit toward ticket purchases with Delta; and can save up to 20% on certain Delta fares on select routes when booking through Wheels Up.

Signature Members also enjoy exclusive access to the full suite of Wheels Down private events and curated experiences, including marquee activations. Through a growing network of brand partners, Wheels Up offers its community unique opportunities to connect, explore, and experience the best in travel, entertainment, and lifestyle.
