News article in New York’s Page Six Magazine\u00a0|<\/span>\u00a0April 14, 2016 |<\/span> 7:15am,\u00a0By Richard Johnson:<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Blue Star Jets is fading to black.<\/p>\n

The private-jet-chartering company \u2014 named after the airline in the 1987 film \u201cWall Street\u201d \u2014 is quietly going out of business after 16 years.<\/p>\n

Todd Rome, Blue Star\u2019s president, is now working with his bigger former rival, Apollo Jets. Ricky Sitomer, Blue Star\u2019s CEO who co-founded the company with Rome, is \u201cdoing his own thing,\u201d Rome said.<\/p>\n

Blue Star, which sponsored Bridgehampton Polo for five summers and advertised in upscale magazines, will disappear.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe more volume you do, the better pricing you get,\u201d Rome told me. \u201cWe feel our efforts combined will take over this industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Apollo was founded by Al Palagonia, the handsome pal of Spike Lee who once did time for pump-and-dump stock fraud schemes.<\/p>\n
