Surf Air and Textron Aviation recently held a delivery event at Textron Aviation’s manufacturing facility in Independence, Kansas, to celebrate the first deliveries.

“We’re excited to immediately deploy these first four Grand Caravans onto our network to further enhance the profitability of our airline operations,” said Deanna White, CEO of Surf Air Mobility. “With our fleet order with Textron Aviation, we’re continuing to deliver on our Transformation Plan as every new Caravan will increase our operational efficiency and provide an even better experience for our passengers.”

As the largest commuter airline in the U.S. by scheduled departures and one of the largest passenger operators of Caravans in the U.S., Surf Air plans to use its fleet order to renew its existing fleet, bolster its existing network, and launch new routes in regions across the country.

“We’re excited to partner with Surf Air Mobility to finance the initial deliveries of their Cessna Caravan fleet, and we believe in Surf Air’s leadership team and their ability to profitably grow their footprint with these new aircraft,” said Mirika Nakayama, CEO of ITC-AeroLeasing, Inc.

Surf Air is developing proprietary electrified powertrain technology for the Cessna Grand Caravan aircraft and has an exclusive relationship with Textron Aviation, in which Textron Aviation will support Surf Air’s development of an electrified Cessna Grand Caravan. Surf Air intends to upgrade its own fleet to electrified powertrains, as well as offer the technology to third-party passenger and cargo Caravan operators.

Surf Air Mobility is the parent company of three air travel brands: Surf Air, Southern Airways and Mokulele Airlines.
