Jet Aviation Zurich getting rid of its Citation fleet

I heard this rumour from two sides recently. Not sure how many aircraft will be affected. Anyone has more information on that?

Cheers
Cecco

As far I know they only had a managed fleet. As such it is the owners who might want to get rid of them me thinks Correct me if I am wrong

I heard the same rumours than Cecco's but...

Jet Aviation Zürich has been offering for charter for many years a fleet of wholly owned Citation Bravos and an Excel. They also offer for charter 3 managed aircraft (a 900EX, a G550 and a Phenom 300).

The Citations are still flying (8 legs today only).

It could be that they will cease later but I have no confirmation.

Four aircraft cease operation

The aircraft

CE-550 Bravo, HB-VMX, VMZ, VMY
CE-560XL, HB-VMU

are owned by Jet Aviation Zurich and will cease operation. Question is when?

Good luck to the pilots and I hope that they will find a new job soon!
