Airshare Partners with PGA of America
In a significant move for both the golf and aviation industries, Airshare has officially partnered with the PGA of America to become their designated private aviation provider. This multi-year agreement not only positions Airshare as the "Official Private Aviation Provider" for the PGA and the 2025 Ryder Cup but also encompasses several prestigious events including the PGA Championship and PGA National Club Championship that will extend through 2029.
Commitment to Golf and Community
This collaboration highlights Airshare's dedication to enhancing golf's visibility and accessibility across the nation. As part of the partnership, Airshare plans to engage actively with the Southern California, South Florida, Metropolitan New York, and Southwest PGA Sections, aiming to promote golf at the grassroots level. Jeff Price, Chief Commercial Philanthropy Officer of PGA of America, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "Airshare's commitment to excellence and seamless travel solutions aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver a world-class experience at our Spectator Championships."
This strategic alliance is designed not only to enhance Airshare's visibility in the marketplace but also to demonstrate their commitment to supporting the growth of golf throughout local communities within the vicinity of the PGA Sections.
Airshare's Aviation Prowess
Airshare has become one of the largest and fastest-growing private aviation companies in the United States, operating a fleet of nearly 140 aircraft. With an expertise that spans nearly 25 years in the aviation sector, the company’s offerings include aircraft management, jet cards, charter services, and fractional ownership solutions. Recently, Airshare underwent a pivotal change in ownership, with Kompass Kapital acquiring control and leading to an expansive push for growth, particularly in their fractional program.
The partnership with the PGA of America will enhance not only Airshare's brand awareness but also its presence in the golf industry. Andy Tretiak, Chief Marketing Officer of Airshare, noted, "Throughout our history, Airshare has proudly supported golf in the U.S. This partnership emphasizes our commitment to growing the sport further."
Upcoming Events: PGA Championship and Ryder Cup
The 107th PGA Championship is set to be held from May 12-18, 2025, at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, while the prominently awaited 2025 Ryder Cup will take place from September 23-28 at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York. As a key partner, Airshare will be critical in facilitating travel for teams, officials, and spectators, ensuring smooth operations throughout these high-profile events.
