Nicholas Correnti

Nicholas Correnti founded NICHOLAS AIR in 1997. At the time, it was a small, private aviation company focusing on aircraft management and leasing programs. Because of Correnti’s dedication, experience, and leadership, NICHOLAS AIR has grown to become the 12th-largest private aviation company in the country and is now the industry’s newest owned-and-operated service experience offering highly personalized, customizable Jet Card programs.

Correnti took to the skies at a young age, having become an accomplished pilot in his teens. “There was always something intriguing about aviation,” he says. “I had a vision of how to do it safer, better, and more efficiently.” His hobby quickly became an obsession, with Correnti holding a world record for the most complex aircraft soloed on his 16th birthday, after he amassed more than 1,000 hours of flying time. This passion is what created the basis of NICHOLAS AIR, a name that has become synonymous with an elevated brand standard. Correnti immersed himself in the company he founded, serving as pilot, dispatcher, mechanic, customer service agent, and aircraft dealer. He says learning about all aspects of the business allowed him to know what his team needed so they could collectively accomplish their goal of providing a safe and personalized private aviation experience for its Members.

In founding NICHOLAS AIR, Correnti recognized the gap between large private aviation operations and quality customer service. The foundation of the company is solidly rooted in providing the best the industry has to offer—the best aircraft, pilots, and customer service, all provided by a level of elite professionals who come from around the country to work for NICHOLAS AIR. Correnti has taken his love of aviation, a solid foundation in business, and a passion for providing world-class customer service to lead one of the fastest-growing companies in the aviation industry. His business acumen, forged by unparalleled longevity as a CEO in private aviation, combined with the teachings from his late father and business luminary, John Correnti, have allowed his portfolio of businesses to excel during the last two decades.

NICHOLAS AIR was founded as a brand designed to make each facet of private aviation better than it had been. The notions of flying better aircraft, newer aircraft, with better pilots, and a strong focus on customer service served as the foundation on which the company was built. Two and a half decades later, NICHOLAS AIR has solidified its spot at the top of the industry as it continues to deliver on that original model. Even with its rapid growth, NICHOLAS AIR has stayed very close to its core principles, without sacrificing key elements of safety, integrity, and professionalism.

As private aviation constantly shifts, NICHOLAS AIR’s steady and responsible growth has attracted both new entrants to private flying, as well as experienced private flyers who have a specific set of requirements for those they fly with. A customized approach to customer service, as well as a flexible approach to matching the aircraft to the mission at hand, have elevated the brand to the top of the business. The continued growth trajectory, paired with the best-of-the-best in private aviation completes the lifelong plan that Correnti had in mind when he started the company 25 years ago.
