Private aviation company Airshare announced today they have appointed Pete Kiernan as Vice President of Sales for its Aircraft Management division.
The company recently expanded this service nationally following its acquisition of Wheels Up’s Aircraft Management business in September 2023.

Kiernan joins Airshare from Elevate Jet, where he was Vice President of Aircraft Management Sales.

Kiernan has earned a strong reputation for his expertise in business aviation and aircraft sales, as well as his strategic approach to enhancing managed fleet offerings.
At Airshare, he will be responsible for aircraft management sales nationwide, with an emphasis on markets covering the East Coast.
Kiernan said: “I’m excited for the opportunity to work with the Airshare leadership team and be part of a world-class innovator in private aviation with an impeccable reputation.
“I look forward to growing the managed aircraft fleet in new markets while continuing to deliver the highest level of service and support to our current customer base.”
