Wheels Up Adds Honeywell and Av8 Maintenance Support Agreements

Wheels Up entered an aftermarket support agreement with Honeywell covering Honeywell products on its Bombardier Challenger 300/350 fleet. A Fleet Maintenance Service Plan includes scheduled and unscheduled maintenance. Wheels Up also signed with Av8 for Phenom 300 landing-gear overhaul and exchange.

Key details

• Honeywell’s plan includes access to Ensemble, which gathers engine-performance data during flight and provides engine-health information to Wheels Up’s maintenance team.
• The Av8 agreement runs for five years and through 2032.
• Earlier in 2026, Wheels Up consolidated its fleet around Bombardier Challenger 300/350 and Embraer Phenom 300 aircraft.
• The reported coverage says Phenom 300 landing gear have a 10-year inspection interval.

The Av8 agreement covers Phenom 300 landing-gear overhaul and exchange through 2032.

Why it matters

The agreements give Wheels Up maintenance arrangements for its two aircraft families, covering Challenger fleet systems and Phenom landing gear. Ensemble’s engine data can give the maintenance team information gathered during flight, while the Av8 program addresses overhaul and exchange work.

What happens next

These maintenance programs give Wheels Up a foundation for supporting its focused fleet as it develops its service operation. Which aircraft family would you like to see Wheels Up expand next?
