Personal Flight Management
What we handle between flights
Send us your itinerary. We coordinate the crew and trip, keep the maintenance records current, and show you what the aircraft costs to operate.
Crew & Schedule
Your trip, professionally supported
Type-experienced crews, thoughtful trip planning, and clear communication — coordinated around your schedule with the practical judgment aviation requires.
Maintenance & Records
Managed before it becomes urgent
From inspection planning to shop coordination and logbook oversight, we keep the aircraft's maintenance picture organized and visible — so decisions are made with time, context, and options.
Costs & Coordination
The operation stays visible
Fuel programs, insurance, monthly flight logs, and upcoming maintenance needs are organized and communicated — so you understand what is happening without having to manage it yourself.
Home Field Advantage
St. Louis is home.
We're based in our corporate hangar at St. Louis Downtown Airport — minutes across the river from the Arch — with operations at Spirit of St. Louis in Chesterfield. Since 2013, Gateway Jets has grown into one of the region's most experienced Citation-focused management teams, built one relationship at a time.
