March 2026 recorded 360,597 global business jet departures, a remarkable +24.82% year-over-year increase from March 2025's 288,883 flights and a powerful +70.34% month-over-month surge from February's 211,691 departures. This represents the strongest monthly volume in the current 15-month tracking window and a decisive recovery from February's seasonal trough. Q1 2026 cumulative volume stands at 836,770 flights, tracking +4.24% above Q1 2025. North America maintained dominant market share at 75.89% (273,674 flights), while Europe expanded significantly to 14.92% (53,807 flights) with +51.60% YoY growth. The Rest of World region contributed 9.18% (33,116 flights) with +13.78% YoY growth. The daily average of 11,632 flights represents the highest throughput recorded in the analysis period.
March's powerful rebound confirms that February's contraction was a transient seasonal disruption rather than a structural shift. The +70.34% MoM surge aligns with historical patterns where March typically delivers the strongest Q1 acceleration. The 2025 baseline shows consistently elevated volumes from March through November, with October 2025 peaking at 312,622 departures. With March 2026 volumes exceeding the prior-year baseline by +24.82%, activity is now tracking above 2025 levels heading into Q2. Based on historical trend analysis, April 2026 is projected at approximately +5% YoY growth, suggesting continued momentum.

The combined Medium and Long-Haul share of 43.77% reflects a slight shift compared to February's 44.98%, as the Short-Haul segment benefited disproportionately from the spring seasonal rebound.

North America posted the highest intracontinental concentration at 99.08%, with only 0.92% of flights connecting intercontinentally.

The Dallas-Houston corridor surged to become March's hottest global route with 987 flights, displacing the traditional Miami-New York leader. This approximately 1-hour flight connects Texas's two largest business centers — Dallas's financial and technology hub with Houston's energy capital. The route averaged approximately 32 flights per day across 31 days, with +80.11% MoM growth from February's 548 flights and +20.37% YoY expansion from March 2025's 820 flights.

Dallas→HoustonThe Embraer Phenom 300 (including 300E variants) reclaimed its position as the world's most popular business jet model in March 2026 with 35,225 flights across a 784-aircraft global fleet. The model's dramatic +145.88% MoM increase from February's 14,326 flights and +49.04% YoY growth versus March 2025's 23,635 flights demonstrates the Phenom 300's strong recovery from the seasonal trough. Route analysis shows Dallas-Houston leading with 154 flights, followed by Rio de Janeiro-Sao Paulo (110) — reflecting the model's dominance in its home Brazilian market. The Phenom 300's 42.96% utilization rate ranks fourth globally, with its large 784-unit fleet ensuring volume leadership. The model's spring rebound confirms its charter-heavy user base responds strongly to seasonal demand acceleration, displacing the Challenger 300 Series which had led in February.
LN-SAA, a Cessna Citation Latitude operated by Avincis Aviation Norway, was the most active business jet globally in March 2026 with 219 flights — approximately 7.1 flights per day across the 31-day month.

The Bergen-Oslo corridor led with 35 flights, followed by Oslo-Trondheim (24) and Oslo-Stavanger (22). The Citation Latitude's versatile midsize capabilities make it well-suited for connecting Norway's key business centers along the coastline and into the Arctic north, from Bergen and Stavanger to Bodo and Tromso, with cross-border service to Geneva, Switzerland.
