"Political travel has become a niche of its own within the aviation world. One pro in that realm is Gregg Brunson-Pitts, the founder and CEO of Advanced Aviation Team, based in Washington, DC. The firm arranges VIP travel for ultrawealthy families, celebrities, and corporate C-suites, with a particular specialty in campaign travel."
"Advanced Aviation manages contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars over a single election cycle. These logistics can make or break a campaign, as winning often comes down to how fast, cheaply, and visibly candidates can move across battleground states."
"Brunson-Pitts previously ran the White House Travel Office for eight years under former President George W. Bush. He said a charter jet carrying the White House press corps, Secret Service personnel, and other staff would almost always fly in tandem with Air Force One."
Political campaign travel requires specialized expertise beyond commercial aviation. Advanced Aviation Team, founded by Gregg Brunson-Pitts, specializes in arranging VIP travel for candidates, staff, donors, press, and security during election cycles. The firm competes with commercial airlines, private jet operators, and other political travel specialists. Campaign logistics significantly impact electoral success, as candidates must move quickly and cost-effectively across battleground states. Brunson-Pitts built his team from aviation and political backgrounds, drawing on experience from White House operations and previous campaign travel coordination. The 2026 election cycle promises substantial demand for these specialized services.
