Cleveland, OH – May 20, 2010 – Flight Options, a leading provider of safe, reliable and luxurious private air travel services, today announced that it has taken delivery of its first Phenom 300 business jet. Manufactured by Embraer, this is the first of 100 aircraft set to be delivered to Flight Options over the next 10 years.

"We expect that the Phenom 300 will be a true game changer in the fractional market place," said Mike Silvestro, CEO. "What makes this aircraft so unique is that not only will it offer best in class cabin comfort, range and baggage capacity, but it will do so while operating at the lowest cost per mile of any light jet. In fact, the all inclusive cost per hour for the Phenom is approximately 25% less then its closest competitor."

Flight Options also plans to equip the aircraft with new features that have not been seen before in light and midsize aircraft. In addition to an iPod® docking station, the Phenom 300 will be equipped with Broadband Wireless Internet (Wi-Fi) allowing Flight Options' customers increased productivity while they travel.

Flight Options will launch a nationwide tour designed to showcase this aircraft and its remarkable features. Beginning in mid June, the tour will visit 40 cities including New York, Dallas, Chicago and Las Vegas.
