Air Transportation Services

Take your next trip on one of our Hokie Birds! Our mission is to further the goals and objectives of Virginia Tech by providing safe, on-demand air transportation for:

• Virginia Tech staff and faculty on official University business
• All State employees on official State business
• Approved related corporations

The aircraft used to provide these services are often referred to as "Hokie Birds." Two are available for air transportation.

• Cessna Citation II
• Cessna Citation Ultra

We strive to make air transportation safe, affordable, and convenient for our customers as possible. Our flying service can often be customized to fit your needs and choice of departure times and places. A Hokie Bird flight can save you time, money, and overnight expenses in the commute to large commercial airports. If you have a group traveling to a meeting, the cost savings can be considerable. When you compute your cost in salaries consumed in commuting, overnight expenses, meals, airline savings, etc., our service may be more cost-effective than flying commercially. Our rates (PDF) are quite competitive.

Flight Quotes and Scheduling

To schedule a flight or to obtain flight quotes, please contact dispatcher Regina Young 231-2636 or rsyoung@vt.edu.

We look forward to serving your flying needs. If your department is unable to charter either of the Hokie Birds or someone prefers not to fly, consider renting a vehicle from Fleet Services.
