JSX, the United States’ leading public charter air carrier, celebrated yesterday a milestone in their partnership with a special ceremony at Santa Monica Airport, showcasing JSX’s first ATR 42-600 aircraft. 

JSX, winner of the “5-Star Regional Airline” award from the Airline Passenger Experience Association for five years in a row, began operating its first ATR 42-600 in December on the Santa Monica–Las Vegas route, marking an early milestone in its fleet expansion.

Building on this success, yesterday’s event celebrated the next step in this journey: JSX will operate four ATR 42-600s in early 2026, each featuring a premium 30-seat configuration.
