CINCINNATI, Jan. 7, 2008 - Delta AirElite (NYSE: DAL) has added another Learjet 45 to its fleet, continuing to expand their number of charter aircraft in response to increased customer demand. This late-model aircraft will be based in Tulsa, OK (TUL) and will serve both Fleet Members and charter customers. The aircraft will be flown under Delta AirElites FAR Part 135 operating certificate.

"As demand for private jet travel continues to grow, we are committed to offering our customers access to the most popular, late-model aircraft for their travel needs,” said Brandon Greene, Sales Director, Delta AirElite Business Jets. “This latest aircraft addition will support the continued growth of our Fleet Membership program as well as serve charter customers.”

The Bombardier Learjet 45 offers one of the most comfortable cabins in its class, with spacious seating for up to eight passengers. With a range of 2,200 statute miles at speeds up to 534 mph, the Learjet 45 is an ideal choice for a variety of trips.

Delta AirElite offers customers one of the largest, most diverse fleets of well-appointed, late-model business jets in the industry. In October, the company added two new Learjet 45XRs and a Citation CJ2 to its operating certificate.
