As a valued customer I recognize that these sudden changes are an inconvenience and I sincerely apologize. These precautionary measures have been taken to limit the exposure of our passengers, crew members and employees to the potential spread of the virus. Our senior leadership team will remain vigilant and is monitoring the situation in real time. We plan to return to our normal operating schedule as soon as possible.

**Our call center has been overloaded. We will reach out to affected passengers ASAP.**

Advanced Air is Taking Precautions:

We are taking precautionary measures and having our offices and aircraft regularly deep cleaned and sanitized. The nature of flying private allows passengers to avoid large crowds at commercial airports with significantly fewer guests onboard each aircraft. These advantages will help prevent the spread of any germs between aircraft cleanings.

We have taken proactive and voluntary steps to help our passengers have a healthy flying experience. In addition to the air circulation features onboard, we are adding more hand sanitizer onboard our aircraft and implementing extra cleaning procedures between flights. All areas of high touch points like windows, armrests and handles will be disinfected with cleansers.

Although our Crew Members are thoroughly trained in safety procedures they have also been briefed on symptoms which may be exhibited by a potentially affected individual and are exercising high caution and discretion.

Also, per the CDC recommendations, we are encouraging at risk individuals to delay their travel plans.
