Melbourne, FL – Rocket Air announced the official launch of its new charter division, expanding the company’s capabilities to include on-demand air travel services based out of Melbourne Orlando International Airport (KMLB). The announcement was made during the SUN ’n FUN Aerospace Expo, marking a major milestone in the company’s continued growth along Florida’s Space Coast.
The new charter operation will focus on providing efficient, flexible travel throughout Florida, the Florida Keys, and the Bahamas, utilizing Rocket Air’s fleet of Cirrus aircraft. This service is designed to offer a streamlined alternative to commercial travel, connecting clients to regional destinations with speed, convenience, and a high standard of safety.
“Adding charter capabilities allows us to better serve both our existing customers and a broader market seeking reliable regional air travel,” said Derek Fallon, Founder and CEO. “With our modern Cirrus fleet and experienced team, we’re positioned to deliver a premium, accessible charter experience.”
The launch of Rocket Air Charter comes at a transformative moment for the organization. Melbourne Flight Training, Heck Air, Fallon Pilot Shop, and Sebastian Communication are all undergoing a unified rebrand under the Rocket Air name. This transition brings together multiple aviation services under one cohesive identity.
With the addition of charter operations, Rocket Air now operates as a five-division aviation company, offering:
- Flight training
- Aircraft maintenance
- Pilot supplies and aircraft parts
- Avionics services
- Charter operations
Headquartered on Florida’s Space Coast, Rocket Air is uniquely positioned to provide a comprehensive aviation ecosystem—supporting pilots, aircraft owners, and travelers alike.
