Vista Expands XO Network to Asia

Vista, recognized as the foremost private aviation group globally, recently unveiled its strategic plans for 2026, marking a significant expansion into Asia. This initiative accompanies a notable uptick in demand for private aviation solutions, validated by the impressive growth of its renowned VistaJet and XO brands in the Asia Pacific region during the first half of 2025.

As the appetite for private flying in Asia Pacific continues to surge, Vista reported a remarkable 26% year-on-year increase in its Program subscription membership across the region. Notably, cities such as Hong Kong and Singapore serve as prime gateways to North Asia and Southeast Asia, respectively, attracting both business travelers and tourists in equal measure. Kuala Lumpur and Tokyo also remain popular destinations for this segment, catering to a diverse travel audience.

Ian Moore, Chief Commercial Officer at Vista, emphasized the dual appeal of these key cities, stating, "One of the key drivers behind the strong demand is that these cities cater to both business and leisure travel. They are not only major commercial hubs in Asia, but also highly popular tourist destinations." This trend is heightened among entrepreneurs and high-ranking officials who favor 'bleisure travel,' merging professional obligations with personal leisure, often paired with family members.

The newly launched XO digital marketplace enhances this experience by providing immediate, flexible access to an extensive network of over 2,000 aircraft worldwide. This platform allows users to secure the right aircraft tailored to their needs, whether for short domestic flights or complex international journeys. While North America remains the leading market for XO, international bookings have surged nearly 40% in the previous year, underscoring the burgeoning demand for transparent and adaptable private aviation solutions.

Crystal Wong, President — Asia Pacific at Vista, noted, "We are seeing increasing demand from clients in Asia who are seeking flexible and instant flight solutions. Through the XO mobile application, Asian clients may book and confirm their flights with real-time pricing. It is the simplest and most flexible way to begin flying privately."

VistaJet, a prominent entity in the private aviation market, has maintained its leadership for 17 years within the Asia Pacific region, effectively offering members an ownership experience without the associated responsibilities or costs. Members enjoy guaranteed access to VistaJet's iconic fleet, characterized by its distinctive silver and red aircraft, enabling seamless global travel throughout the year.

In the initial half of 2025, VistaJet’s Program membership illustrated a 26% increase, with Japan reporting an impressive 67% spike, closely followed by Singapore at 50%. This upward trend is bolstered by strong economic momentum in the Asia Pacific, as Vista seeks to build and strengthen essential regional and international partnerships amid shifting geopolitical landscapes.

As corporate entities increasingly rely on business jets, executives benefit from the time efficiencies and privacy these aircraft offer. Vista's flagship Global 7500, distinguished as the largest and longest-range business jet, is an excellent option for such travel. It provides unrivaled connectivity, with capabilities to fly up to 17 hours non-stop. The meticulously designed wings guarantee a smooth ride within a spacious cabin featuring four distinct living areas, including a permanent bedroom tailored for corporate or family travel dynamics.

Bringing XO to Asia allows clients to access the best of both realms provided by Vista’s extensive infrastructure. While enjoying on-demand flights via the instant booking capabilities of the XO marketplace, clients can simultaneously experience a guaranteed flight solution replicating the ownership advantages of VistaJet. Ian Moore concludes, "We deliver seamless travel that combines international reach, domestic flexibility, and bespoke lifestyle experiences."

In summary, Vista is at the forefront of revolutionizing private aviation in the Asia Pacific region, innovating constantly through substantial investments in technology, talent, and infrastructure, ensuring its services meet the highest standards of excellence and value for clients around the globe.
