Monday, September 16, 2024 RAI Jets, a Part 135 certified aircraft charter and management company based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, has announced the latest addition to its fleet: the Beechcraft Premier I , a sleek and efficient light business jet. This new addition complements RAI Jets’ existing fleet, which includes turboprops, midsize, and super-midsize jets, expanding options for both business and leisure travelers. The Premier I is now available for charter, offering a luxurious, fuel-efficient, and versatile option for clients.

“We expect the Premier I to become one of our most popular aircraft due to its speed, luxury interior, and fuel efficiency,” said David Riley , Director of Operations at RAI Jets. Originally introduced by Raytheon/Hawker Beechcraft (now part of Textron Aviation ), the Beechcraft Premier has earned its reputation as a premium business jet since its first production in 1998. RAI Jets’ Premier I, a 2005 model, is widely favored by corporate executives, private owners, and charter operators for its blend of performance and comfort.

David Riley further noted, “The addition of the Premier I to our fleet aligns with our commitment to offer a full range of aircraft options tailored to our clients’ needs. Despite being classified as a light jet, the Premier I delivers features typically found in much larger jets.” One standout feature of the Premier I is its spacious cabin, offering more interior room than many other aircraft in its class.
