Rennia Group Consolidates Charter Fleet
Rennia Group is streamlining its Part 135 operations as both Rennia Aviation and Dumont Aviation, trading as Rennia Global, have undertaken significant fleet reductions. Recent data from ch-aviation shows that Rennia Group has retired several older aircraft models to consolidate its charter operations around Dassault Aviation types, with the aim of improving operational efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.
Rennia Aviation has retired its Falcon 50 and Challenger 601-3A aircraft from its Part 135-certified fleet. The Challenger, registered as N721G with manufacturer serial number 5109, was the only non-Dassault jet in the Rennia Aviation fleet. Configured for up to 10 passengers, the 32.9-year-old Challenger joined the fleet in early 2023. However, it has been parked at Gainesville, Florida since January 23, 2025, and is not currently listed as Part 135-certified. This retirement is part of a broader effort by Rennia Aviation to focus on a more modern and reliable fleet composition.
At the same time, Rennia Aviation also phased out its last Falcon 50s used for charter operations. One such aircraft, registered as N880TD with a manufacturer serial number of 14, is a 45-year-old Falcon 50 configured for up to nine passengers. This aircraft had been based at Gainesville, Florida, and served in the Rennia Aviation fleet since mid-2024. Its final flight under the Rennia Aviation ‘RNI’ code took place on January 19, operating between Superior Richard I Bong and Orlando Sanford. After being parked at Orlando Sanford until February 24, the aircraft flew to Farmingdale and later operated under the ‘JKR’ code for Justice Air, although it is not included in the current Part 135 certificate, which still lists three additional Falcon 50s.
Simultaneously, Rennia Global has retired its last Falcon 2000 from its charter fleet. The aircraft, registered as N360SM with manufacturer serial number 113, is a 25.1-year-old jet configured to carry up to 10 passengers. Based at Wilmington New Castle, it joined the Rennia Global fleet in late 2023 and last operated under the company’s ‘SDU’ code on February 11, flying from Fort Lauderdale Executive to Nashville International. Although it is no longer Part 135-certified, the jet remains active in operations under Rennia Global.
Following these retirements, Rennia Group has taken decisive steps to consolidate its charter operations around aircraft from Dassault Aviation. Rennia Aviation’s updated Part 135 fleet now comprises a Falcon 20(F5), a Falcon 900, a Falcon 900B, and four Falcon 2000s. Meanwhile, Rennia Global’s charter fleet is currently composed of three Falcon 50s. This strategic shift is aimed at standardizing the fleet to simplify pilot training, maintenance, and overall management, while also reducing the operational complexities associated with a diverse aircraft mix.
The consolidation effort by Rennia Group reflects the broader industry trend toward fleet modernization and efficiency improvements in the charter sector. By phasing out older and less efficient aircraft, the company is positioning itself to better serve its clientele with a more consistent and dependable product offering. The renewed focus on Dassault Aviation aircraft not only supports improved safety and performance standards but also helps the group align its long-term business strategies with market demands and regulatory requirements.
