It is also providing pilots flying for its fractional ownership programs the ability to receive quarterly bonuses when they fly more than 125 hr. per financial quarter.
Airshare, founded in 2000, is also offering signing bonuses to Phenom-type-rated pilots.
The company is also offering greater flexibility for where pilots can home base, including Chicago, Denver, St. Louis, Wichita, Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, Fort Worth, Buffalo and Kansas City.
