The Orange County Board of Supervisors has unanimously approved JSX's relocation at John Wayne Airport, enabling the air carrier to move from the east side to the west side of the airfield.
The award-winning public charter operator will transition from ACI Jet's leasehold to Jay's Aircraft Maintenance leasehold at 3000 Airway Avenue, with flight operations scheduled to begin around March 25.
This relocation, necessitated by JWA's Taxiway A, D and E Reconstruction Project starting this spring, will increase JSX's annual customer allocation at the airport, expanding access to its hassle-free flights to destinations across the West Coast and beyond.
"Today's approval marks a significant milestone for JSX and for Orange County," said Alex Wilcox, CEO of JSX. "Our new home at John Wayne Airport is a testament to the collaborative spirit of our partners at JWA, the County of Orange and local stakeholders who value our model of joyful, simple air travel."
JSX operates Embraer 135/145 aircraft, which are the quietest passenger jets at JWA, aligning with the carrier's commitment to minimizing environmental impact.
Founded in 2016, JSX provides up to 120 public charter flights daily to 25 business and leisure destinations across Arizona, California, Colorado, Mexico, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico, New York and Texas. The company currently operates 46 ERJ family aircraft and employs more than 1,000 crewmembers.
