GetJet Aviation Holdings, an international aviation services group headquartered in Lithuania, is rebranded as GetJet Group. This change supports the group’s 2026 Growth Strategy, aimed at building a more efficient and integrated structure to accommodate expanding global operations.

“We are simplifying our structure to operate more efficiently, while our main brand, GetJet, remains and becomes even more visible,” said Darius Viltrakis, CEO of GetJet Group.

“GetJet Aviation Holdings used to function more as a legal name than a true brand, since each company operated under its own brand. Today, we clearly see the value of vertical integration and increasingly operate as a fully integrated group. That’s why we want to strengthen the core brand and position it as the unifying name of the entire group.”

GetJet Group will operate through several key entities: Lithuania-based ACMI and charter airline GetJet Airlines and its Maltese branch, GetJet Airlines Malta (in transition from former the name – Airhub Airlines); aviation asset management and maintenance provider Airhub Aviation; and the training center Airhub Training.

“In 2025, we expanded significantly beyond the European Union, building growing partnerships in the Middle East and other regions. As we prepare for accelerated growth in 2026, we are streamlining our operations to support our global expansion and stay ready for future opportunities,” said Darius Viltrakis.

The company has recently announced a new contract with Etihad Airways, further strengthening its customer portfolio. It continues to provide services for Air Senegal, Wizz Air, and other operators, while the previous summer season saw successful cooperation with national carriers including Royal Air Jordanian and TAP Portugal, among others.

The upcoming summer season is already secured with several leading international customers, with additional announcements to follow in the near future.

200 New Jobs, Expanded Training Operations in Latvia

As part of its 2026 Growth Strategy, GetJet Group plans to create 200 new positions across its holding companies in four countries, supporting expanded flight operations and MRO capacity.

“We are actively scaling our teams to match the pace of our growth. With new clients joining and expansion underway across all our holding entities, we will be hiring intensively to ensure we have the right talent in place to support both our operations and MRO capabilities,” said the CEO of GetJet Group.

Recently, GetJet Group has transitioned GetJet Airlines Latvia from an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) holder to a Cabin Crew Training Organization (CCTO), consolidating flight operations under its Lithuanian and Maltese AOCs while turning the Latvian entity into a platform for talent attraction and international training (Airhub Training). The move comes as the company prepares for intensive hiring, particularly targeting skilled aviation professionals affected by recent bankruptcies and market exits. 

“Latvia has long been an important market for us, and we intend to maintain and build on the strong connections established there by developing a training hub. We also see an opportunity to engage highly qualified specialists affected by recent market changes in Latvia,” said Darius Viltrakis.

Fleet Expansion for Q1–Q2 and External Funding Plans

As part of its 2026 growth strategy, GetJet Group plans aircraft acquisitions in Q1 and Q2. “The decision to acquire five additional aircraft this year is directly linked to the clients we already have in the pipeline. We need to be fully ready to accommodate the growing demand. The aircraft are expected to join the fleet in Q1 and early Q2, in line with the group’s growth strategy,” said Darius Viltrakis. 

GetJet Group is also strengthening its capital base. “We spent 2025 building the right investor base and financing structure, and today these discussions are at an advanced stage to support the growth of our asset management activities and the group’s broader growth strategy.” A formal announcement is expected next month.

Scaling MRO Capacity

GetJet Group is also set to manage two MRO hangars — Airhub Aviation’s MRO facility in Šiauliai and GetJet Airlines’ upcoming facility at Vilnius International Airport. The Airhub hangar is actively hiring technicians, while the VNO facility is scheduled for groundbreaking in Q4. “We are working to significantly increase MRO capacity in the Northern–Eastern European region, where such infrastructure is currently in short supply,” said Darius Viltrakis, CEO of GetJet Group. “Our focus is technical independence, ensuring GetJet remains among the most agile ACMI providers in the market while also developing into a leading technical partner in the region.”

GetJet Group is an international aviation services group founded in Lithuania, offering ACMI leasing, aircraft maintenance (MRO), asset management, component trading, and aviation training solutions. The group comprises five companies: GetJet Airlines, GetJet Airlines Malta (name change in process), Airhub Aviation, and Airhub Training centers in Lithuania and Latvia. The Group operates managed hangar infrastructure in Lithuania, including Airhub Aviation’s MRO facility in Šiauliai International Airport and GetJet Airlines’ hangar in development at Vilnius International Airport.

The Group manages an aviation asset portfolio valued at approximately €200 million and operates a fleet of 16 aircraft, serving more than 70 clients in over 50 countries worldwide. It employs around 900 aviation professionals and is headquartered in Vilnius with a sales office in Dubai. In 2024, GetJet Group generated revenue of €184.3 million, with a net profit of €25.4 million.

GetJet Group was founded by entrepreneur Aleksandr Celiadin and is currently led by CEO Darius Viltrakis.
