Our Story

Built differently,
from the ground up.

North Augusta, South Carolina · Age 15

Bentley Padgett, Founder

Emblem Air was founded on a simple observation: the private aviation brokerage industry runs on phone calls, PDF quotes, and relationships built in smoky rooms. For executives who expect instant answers and digital-first experiences, the process feels stuck in 2005.

Emblem Air was built to change that for the Southeast. We combine deep regional operator relationships with a modern, responsive client experience: transparent pricing, fast quotes, and a broker who actually picks up the phone.

We're a startup. We're lean. And because of that, we move faster and care more about every single booking than any national broker ever will.

What Guides Us

Three principles.
No exceptions.

Transparency

You know what you're paying and why.

Speed

Every hour you wait is an hour someone else booked the plane.

Integrity

We only put you on aircraft we'd put ourselves on.
