Key Takeaways:

  • AirShares Elite, a Cirrus fractional ownership provider, abruptly ceased operations, informing members via terse emails that shared planes would be sold and they would receive their share value by year-end.
  • Former members express anger and frustration over the sudden, quiet demise and lack of transparency, as aircraft are being sold without direct communication despite members having invested based on the company's longevity.
  • Despite the apparent legality of the shutdown terms (aircraft remained titled to the company), former share owners are in a tense waiting period for promised repayment by December 31, with AirShares Elite making no public statements.

Former members of AirShares Elite, the Cirrus fractional ownership provider that ceased operations on December 1, are coming forward to tell their stories about the company’s sudden demise — except, they say, at this point there’s not much to tell.

Stunned share owners told Flying they received terse email messages in mid November informing them AirShares Elite would be shutting down at the end of the month. The messages said their airplanes would be sold and they would receive a check for their share value by the end of December.
