Salt Lake City Region Q1 Business Jet Movements Down 8.1%, but SkyShare Grows Against the Trend +10% to 354 Movements — Local Operator Captures Share Amid NetJets Contraction
Analysis
★★ AviGo data shows Salt Lake City three airports (KSLC / U42 / KOGD) Q1 2026 business jet movements totaled 13,992, YoY −8.1%. KSLC as the primary declined 8.4%, but KOGD grew +5.1% against the trend. Operator landscape shows significant divergence: NetJets fell from 904 to 736 (−18.6%), while local operator SkyShare grew from 322 to 354 (+9.9%); Flexjet essentially flat (+1.0%). Type mix highly stable: PC-12 at 2,305 movements retained #1 (−1.0%); King Air 200 grew +13.9% to 789. SkyShare will soon operate the second FBO in the Salt Lake City region — its continued expansion of local market share provides customer-base support for the new FBO.
