Business highlights

• Continued operational excellence underpins financial progress. Wheels Up delivered a Completion Rate of 99%, up 1 point year-over-year, and On-Time Performance (D-60) of 91%, up 4 points from the prior period. The company achieved 24 brand days in the quarter, days with a perfect Completion Rate and no cancellations, including six out of the seven busiest days during the Christmas holiday period - providing a best-in-class experience for customers.

• New go-to-market model, fully integrating the company's global aviation platform under one brand. Wheels Up has unified its full range of customer offerings under a single brand and organizational structure. The newly integrated commercial model will provide a single, personalized team to manage private aviation membership, global private charter, group charter, and hybrid private-commercial itineraries. This approach fully realizes and delivers the breadth of the Wheels Up portfolio and reinforces the company's commitment to a more personalized, customer-centric, end-to-end aviation experience.

• Complete fleet transition expected by year end. Premium Phenom and Challenger jets comprised approximately 40% of Wheels Up's controlled jet fleet at quarter end. The company has continued to add to these fleets in 2026 and expects its fleet transformation will be completed ahead of its original mid-2027 timeline. The company also expects that approximately half of its premium jet fleet will have new livery and interior work completed or in process by the end of 2026.

• Robust customer response to the Signature Membership program. In September, the company introduced the Wheels Up Signature Membership, a premium membership for its Challenger and Phenom fleets. Customer response to this new product has been positive and the company has already sold over 600 Signature Memberships since launch. These memberships represented more than 40% of total Membership Fund sales for the quarter, with approximately 25% of sales from new customers.

• Corporate membership growth reflects unique advantage of Delta partnership. For the fourth quarter, corporate Membership Fund sales grew 35% year-over-year. Corporate membership was our fastest growing segment and represented 40% of Membership Fund sales for the quarter.

• High-speed satellite Wi-Fi installation begins. The company has begun installation of streaming-quality satellite Wi-Fi on its Phenom and Challenger fleets. Given strong customer reaction, the company is accelerating its installation timeline and expects to have nearly all of its fleet equipped by the end of the year.

• Strategic sale-leaseback transaction. In December, the company executed a sale-leaseback transaction with an institutional capital provider for three Challenger and seven Phenom aircraft, consistent with its longer-term strategy of optimizing its mix of owned and leased aircraft. With long-term operating leases in place, the company will continue to operate the aircraft, all of which have or will be painted, branded, refurbished, and equipped with streaming-quality satellite Wi-Fi. The transaction generated a one-time gain on sale of approximately $24 million and net cash proceeds of approximately $30 million. The cash proceeds and incremental borrowing capacity unlocked by the transaction are expected to support Wheels Up's planned 2026 aircraft acquisitions.
