RALEIGH, N.C., August 24, 2026--flyExclusive, Inc. (NYSE American: FLYX), a vertically integrated private aviation company, today announced the appointment of industry veteran Brian P. Reid as Chief Commercial Officer, effective August 24, 2026. Reid will lead flyExclusive's commercial strategy, with a focus on accelerating sustainable revenue growth, elevating the customer experience, and strengthening alignment across sales, marketing, pricing, membership, and strategic partnerships. He will oversee Jet Club, Fractional, Retail Charter, Marketing, Fleet Development, and Member Services, working closely alongside flyExclusive's executive leadership team.
Reid brings more than 30 years of experience in strategic business development and hands-on execution across private aviation, luxury real estate, financial services, consumer engagement technology, and professional sports.

Previously, as Executive Vice President at one of the largest membership-based private aviation platforms in the industry, Reid led exceptional growth in enterprise sales and secured strategic partnerships with American Express, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Pinehurst Resort, Sea Island Club, Palmetto Bluff, and Costco, driving significant expansion in membership acquisition and fund deposits, the same two engines that power flyExclusive's Jet Club and Fractional programs.
He later served as Chief Sales and Marketing Officer at Thomas James Homes, where he oversaw integrated revenue strategy across sales, marketing, and customer experience, and most recently as Chief Revenue Officer at an emerging private aviation marketplace, where he led all revenue-generating functions and contributed to double-digit growth in charter bookings.
