How to be Part of the Most Exciting Week in American Baseball
Event-centered demand for large-cabin jets continues into the autumn sports season with the conclusion of Major League Baseball in the United States and Canada. Fortunately, we have been well-positioned to deliver an unrivaled level of service and superior airframe for groups traveling to these events worldwide. If you need a large cabin jet for this year’s World Series, here is some information you can use to hunt for the perfect jet.
On-Demand Service for the Unknown
At this time, there are still over two months of baseball season to play before a venue for the World Series can be determined. This creates an opportunity for on-demand operators like us who can deliver quickly.
We have been involved with several popular events that require this kind of on-demand flexibility in years past. The World Series is played in an opportune window in mid-October when our fleet has more flexibility than during the busy summer or holiday season.
League Leaders and Likely Venues
While we cannot know for certain who will be in the running for this year’s World Series, there are strong contenders. This is an early idea of how cities are expected to handle the influx of business jets for World Series 2022.
New York Yankees (Yankee Stadium, NY)
Unsurprisingly, the Yankees once again contend for the top position within the American League. At 70-38 this far into the season, the team looks good to be in the running come playoff time.

Avoid Curveballs. Communicate With Your Broker
Our number one recommendation for clients that would like access to a Gulfstream airframe for the World Series is to communicate your travel needs beforehand. Even if you don’t know the destination city, you can still reserve your airframe’s departure.
We are extremely flexible to accommodate events that might alter the venue. And brokers appreciate our ability to turn on a dime. Each journey is unique. That is why we encourage starting the booking process early. So your broker can work closely with us to ensure you are well taken care of on the game day.
