Vista

Vista is the trade name of Vista Global Holding Limited, a private aviation group with a registered address in Dubai. It was set up in 2018 by Thomas Flohr, who founded VistaJet in 2004 and serves as the group's chairman. The listing's Van Nuys, California location reflects the group's US presence, which expanded when Vista agreed in 2022 to acquire the Jet Edge platform, including a maintenance facility and hospitality lounge at Van Nuys.

The group sells private flying through two consumer brands, VistaJet and XO. Its website describes flight subscriptions alongside on-demand charter, supported by a digital booking platform.

Vista states that the holding company itself does not operate aircraft. Flights are performed by licensed operators in the group, which its site lists as VistaJet Limited, VistaJet GmbH, and the US carriers Western Air Charter, Inc. and Jet Select, LLC, both trading as Vista America. The group cites a fleet of more than 200 aircraft of its own plus access to over 2,100 jets from alliance partners.

Vista reports operations in 187 countries, six operational hubs and more than 35 offices. Flyers comparing options should check which group operator will fly a given trip and which brand, VistaJet or XO, handles the booking, since contract terms differ between programs.
