Vaunt Soars to $1.5M ARR in First Year, 100K Downloads, and 590+ Flights, Redefining Private Aviation
Volato Group, Inc. (NYSE American: SOAR) announced today that Vaunt, its rapidly expanding private aviation platform, has achieved a significant milestone: surpassing $1.5 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) within its first year—a remarkable 50% increase since mid-2024. Additionally, Vaunt has exceeded 100,000 app downloads and completed 598 flights in 2024, reinforcing its position as a key driver of Volato’s growth and redefining the landscape of spontaneous luxury travel.
Vaunt: Transforming the Private Aviation Experience
“These numbers don’t just reflect growth—they show that Vaunt is delivering something people want: the thrill of spontaneous, unforgettable travel,” said Tim Graves, VP of Marketing & Operations at Vaunt. “Vaunt isn’t about planning a trip. It’s about seeing an opportunity, grabbing it, and turning it into a memory that sticks with you.”
Vaunt is more than a travel booking app—it’s a gateway to experiences that travelers will cherish for a lifetime. Unlike traditional aviation services that focus solely on point-to-point convenience, Vaunt thrives on spontaneity and serendipity. It’s for those who seek the exhilaration of discovering a last-minute opportunity, securing a coveted flight, and jetting off on an adventure that transforms ordinary trips into extraordinary memories.
A Platform for Creating Unforgettable Moments
Vaunt is built on the belief that private aviation should be more than just transportation—it should be an experience. Whether it’s a first-time visit to an exciting city, a spontaneous getaway to a familiar destination seen in a whole new light, or a memorable journey shared with friends, Vaunt ensures every trip has a story worth telling.
For members, the experience begins with a simple yet thrilling process: opening the Vaunt app, discovering an available flight, and securing a seat. In an instant, a world of possibilities opens up—whether it’s a jet ride to a dream destination, a luxury experience curated for adventure seekers, or an unexpected chance to be part of something unforgettable.
Strategic Growth and Market Expansion
Vaunt’s impressive growth is driven by strategic expansion efforts and key partnerships. In late 2024, the platform integrated flyExclusive flights, adding Citation Excel/XLS aircraft to its roster. This move significantly broadened Vaunt’s reach and provided members with even greater access to luxury travel opportunities.
With a continuously expanding network, Vaunt is well-positioned to cater to the increasing demand for seamless, spontaneous private travel. The platform’s user-friendly interface, combined with Volato’s commitment to innovation, ensures that members can always find and book flights effortlessly, making private aviation more accessible than ever before.
A Business Model Built for Momentum
Vaunt’s rapid success is a testament to its sustainable business model. The platform’s double-digit ARR growth highlights its scalability and ability to generate strong, recurring revenue. Increased membership engagement, growing brand recognition, and an expanding flight network further solidify Vaunt’s role within Volato’s ecosystem, making it a prime asset for investors seeking innovation in private aviation.
Volato’s proprietary Mission Control software underpins Vaunt’s operational efficiency, supporting the seamless management of fractional ownership, charter services, and other on-demand flight solutions. This technology-driven approach positions Vaunt as not just a luxury travel facilitator but a leader in aviation technology and customer-centric innovation.
The Future of Vaunt: Elevating Spontaneous Travel
With its meteoric rise, Vaunt is setting new benchmarks for what private aviation can offer. Looking ahead, the platform aims to further expand its fleet, introduce new partnerships, and refine its offerings to provide even more exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime travel opportunities. As more travelers embrace the concept of spontaneous luxury, Vaunt is ready to lead the charge, ensuring that every journey is more than just a trip—it’s an experience to remember.
