Wheels Up Launches New Membership Plan — What’s Included

Have you been wanting to fly private but haven’t found the right membership? Wheels Up, a membership-based private aviation company founded in 2013, recently introduced a new entry-level option: Wheels Up Connect.

Wheels Up Connect is crafted for travelers who want an accessible path into private aviation. Whether you’re new to private flying or seeking a simpler, more flexible way to customize trips, Connect offers options to suit those needs. Members get exclusive, unlimited access to Shared Flights and Charter Flights, plus access to select one-way and empty-leg Hot Flights.

Beyond air travel, the membership includes lifestyle benefits on the ground. Connect members can take part in special events and receive a complimentary FoundersCard Membership. The program requires a one-time initial fee of $2,995 for the first year and an annual renewal fee of $2,495 starting in the second year.

After signing up, members can begin using benefits immediately through the Wheels Up app.
