Fly Alliance Details Expansion on All Fronts: A Sit-Down with President & Co-Founder Christopher Tasca
With eight additions to its fleet in 4Q25, Fly Alliance is seeing continued momentum and growing demand from clients.
(Orlando, Florida) After global private jet departures set an all-time record in 2025 – with 3,878,336 departures representing a 4.6% year-over-year increase from 2024 levels, according to data from Private Jet Card Comparisons and WingX – Orlando-based Fly Alliance has kicked off 2026 with eight new aircraft in its fleet (onboarded in 4Q25), the expansion of its global maintenance capabilities in India (as announced last week) and a focus on “disciplined expansion,” according to President and Co-Founder Christopher Tasca.

With an integrated model for charter aviation, Fly Alliance focuses on on-demand jet charter, jet cards, fractional ownership, aircraft management and parts and maintenance. The company, which was co-Founded by Tasca and Chief Executive Officer Kevin Wargo, has now been in business for seven years and maintains eight offices worldwide.
The FLY Report sat down with Tasca to run through the company’s seven year history and plans for 2026 and beyond.
“[Discliplined expansion] includes continued fleet growth, deeper investment in our operational infrastructure, and expanding our presence in key markets,” Tasca explained. “Just as importantly, we’re investing in people, technology, and partnerships that support sustainable, long-term growth.”

As for Fly Alliance’s fleet, new additions in 4Q2025 included a mix of light, midsize and longer-range jets, plus three regional aircraft, including: a Cessna CJ4, a Hawker 800A, a Hawker 800XP, a Gulfstream G5, a Falcon 2000 and three CRJ 200 aircraft. Fly Alliance has also secured commitments for two additional Falcon 2000s to join the fleet this quarter (in 1Q26).
With respect to its Bombardier CRJ regional aircraft, the three planes came as part of a management agreement between Fly Alliance and a sports organization; Fly Alliance is currently in the process of exploring possibilities for expanding utilization to other sports organizations and universities.
As for 145 maintenance capabilities, in addition to the company’s newly obtained Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) approval for a Part 145 Repair Station in India, Fly Alliance holds FAA approval for U.S.-registered aircraft, EASA approval for European-registered aircraft, and San Marino approval for San Marino–registered aircraft.
Fly Alliance has, to date, become the number one aircraft disassembler in America, Tasca explained. The growth of the disassembly part of the company’s business has come in tandem with that of its charter, fractional and broader maintenance operations.
Specifically, in the last two years, Fly Alliance disassembled 45 aircraft. Additionally, the company has become one of the top Starlink installers in North America, installing one to three Starlink systems per month for aircraft both on and off fleet.
Tasca credits growth across capabilities at Fly Alliance to “a very deliberate strategy centered on demand, reliability, and control of the client experience. We continue to see strong demand from both individual and enterprise-level clients who want consistency, transparency, and access.”

As for the industry at large, Tasca believes that clients have become “more educated, more value-driven, and more focused on flexibility and time efficiency.”
“At the same time, commercial aviation constraints and evolving travel patterns have accelerated long-term adoption of private aviation as a strategic tool rather than a luxury,” Tasca added.
Fly Alliance’s India-based DGCA maintenance approval further strengthens the company’s international footprint and commitment to supporting business aviation operators worldwide, according to the company.
“With India’s business aviation market continuing to grow, this approval represents a significant milestone for Fly Alliance Maintenance,” said Fly Alliance CEO Kevin Wargo in a Jan. 19th press release from the company. “Our expanded DGCA authorization allows us to deliver the same high-touch, responsive maintenance support our clients expect—now with direct service access for Indian-registered aircraft.”
As for what’s next, Tasca and Wargo intend to keep things simple.
“At the end of the day, our goal is simple: to make private aviation more accessible, predictable, and professionally managed. Growth is a byproduct of executing that mission consistently,” Tasca said.
