About the owners
Jason Johnson, Owning partner, President
At the young age of 15, Jason entered the industry of aviation fueling airplanes and working line service. He graduated from Dowling College with a B.S. in Aeronautics and as a commercial pilot, also a proud member of Alpha Eta Rho (an international professional college aviation fraternity) and the Dowling Flight Team. After graduating he began training with TWA to fly the Boeing 727 and 747. Although it was an amazing experience for Jason it was not what his heart was set on. There was always a luring thought about running and owning a private airline. After a few years in a London-based private jet firm, Jason knew what he had to do.
Partnering with two very close friends and determined to make a difference in the world of private air travel, Exclusive Charter Service was born. After a few years of working out of a basement, the company grew and needed its own home. It was not a coincidence that the location chosen for the office was the same airport that Jason did his first solo flight. Now that ECS has become one of the world’s premier private charter firms, Jason continues to lead ECS and its team into the future. With goals as ambitious as a private supersonic fleet, there seems to be little variation between what Jason imagines, and what ECS accomplishes.
Adam Klein, Owning partner, CFO
When you look up the word "backbone" in the dictionary, it should read "Adam Klein". Adam owned and managed several successful businesses in the technology sector, including running the entire technology sector for one of the world’s largest banks. Then he owned his own firm.
Adam’s interest in the aviation industry was a catalyst for Adam to become one of the owning partners of ECS, since technology and aviation go hand-in-hand. Adam has now taken up flight lessons and his passion for aviation is growing.
If managing the day-to-day operations of the flight department isn’t enough, Adam also heads our yacht charter division. He supports many charities through ECS, including the Make a Wish Foundation, Extreme Makeover, Angel Flight, and local charities. Adam’s fascination with the private aviation market place is obvious and his dedication bears its fruit as ECS has grown tremendously. In the past 2 years, the company’s annual revenue has tripled. We are privileged to have him on our team.
Jason and Adam seem like the perfect formula to a superior organization within the Charter Industry. Together they are unstoppable. It is this cumulative force that has put ECS on the map. The team now has many employees, all who have their own great stories and all make up the true essence of what they stand for. Feel free to call the office any time to speak directly to the owners. Our door is always open and we are happy to be of service.
