GetJet Airlines (GetJet) has secured US$31 million in external financing from London-based volofin Capital Management, providing fresh momentum to its ‘Growth Strategy 2026’. The funding is aimed at expanding the group’s fleet and scaling its aviation asset management capabilities.

The capital will support the acquisition of up to five additional narrow-body aircraft, with integration into the fleet planned by the second quarter of 2026. This expansion is intended to meet a strong pipeline of client demand and increasing requirements for ACMI services.

Chief Executive Darius Viltrakis stated that the financing highlights the confidence of key financial partners in GetJet’s operational performance and positions the company to respond rapidly to growing demand from airline customers.

Volofin Capital Management also expressed its commitment to the partnership, noting its intention to continue supporting GetJet through tailored asset-based financing solutions as further opportunities arise.

GetJet Airlines has recently strengthened its commercial position with new contracts from Eurowings and Etihad Airways, while continuing operations for carriers including Air Senegal and Wizz Air. During the previous summer season, the airline also supported national carriers such as Royal Jordanian and TAP Air Portugal.

In addition to fleet expansion, the financing will bolster the development of the group’s aviation asset management and component trading activities through its affiliated company, Airhub Aviation. Based in Northern and Central Europe, Airhub manages an aviation asset portfolio valued at approximately €200 million (US$232 million) and operates an MRO facility at Šiauliai International Airport in Lithuania.
