David Woo\/Photographer.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Nick Kennedy was a health care information technology executive the first time he flew on a private jet. He admits that traveling amid the Gulfstream G550\u2019s high-end appointments and roomy chairs felt like the \u201cepitome of success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After just a few flights, the cool factor of such trappings receded. But the convenience of virtually hassle-free boarding and arrival didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>The Dallas man said being able to fly around the country for work and still make it home to enjoy his wife and three kids became invaluable. That appreciation quickly became the impetus for a new business venture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanted to enable men and women to be where they wanted to be, when they wanted to be there,\u201d Kennedy said.<\/p>\n<p>So last year, Kennedy and a handful of associates launched Rise, a Dallas-based company that is taking the sharing economy to the skies. While Rise conjures the spirit of fellow technology firms like Uber and Airbnb, it actually works more like Netflix. At a higher cost, of course.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_888\" style=\"width: 686px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/rise-king-air-cabin.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-888\" class=\"wp-image-888 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/rise-king-air-cabin.jpg?resize=625%2C368\" alt=\"Rise Texas King Air private charter cabin\" width=\"625\" height=\"368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/rise-king-air-cabin.jpg?w=676&amp;ssl=1 676w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/rise-king-air-cabin.jpg?resize=300%2C177&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/rise-king-air-cabin.jpg?resize=624%2C367&amp;ssl=1 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-888\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">For a monthly fee, Rise members enjoy unlimited access to scheduled flights to and from Dallas, Austin and Houston on private planes like this King Air 350. David Woo\/Photographer<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Company employees spent their first nine months securing approval for their business model from the U.S. Department of Transportation and Federal Aviation Administration. Kennedy believes they\u2019re the first to do so.<\/p>\n<p>Rise partners with charter flight companies to ensure members will have access to planes, pilots and flights. Kennedy said most private planes only operate at 20 percent of their utilization rate. He estimates that the private jets Rise partners with operate at 75 to 80 percent of their utilization rate.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>The Rise-branded King Air is operated by Monarch Air, a Part 135 charter operator based at Dallas\u2019 Addison Airport.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Company officials thoroughly vet the charter firms\u2019 operations, financials, training processes and maintenance practices before partnering with them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they meet our standards, then they get to fly our members around,\u201d Kennedy said last week as he stood at Love Field next to one of the King Air 350 planes emblazoned with Rise\u2019s logo.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"subhead_body\">Removing the hassles<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Minutes earlier, the plane had brought six Rise members from Houston. One of them got off, walked a few feet from the plane, put his bags in his waiting car and drove off.<\/p>\n<p>Cody Vicknair, an assistant vice president for Arthur J. Gallagher &amp; Co. in Houston, walked from the plane to the Jet Aviation building that serves as Rise\u2019s terminal. Vicknair, who landed 30 minutes before he was scheduled to give a speech in Dallas, started using the service when it launched. He flies at least once a week.<\/p>\n<p>The Houston man said the user interface, lack of long security lines and flexibility of flights attracted him to the service. Rise runs background checks on all member applicants and reserves the right to search passengers and their bags before they board. But with just a handful of passengers leaving from a private hangar, members aren\u2019t subjected to the long lines most people face at commercial airline security checkpoints.<\/p>\n<p>After landing in Dallas on Thursday, Vicknair said he wasn\u2019t sure whether he would fly back later that day or stay overnight and catch Rise\u2019s first Friday flight back to Houston. Either way, there was no cost difference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this model and technology, they have pretty much figured out the work flow to accommodate us,\u201d he said. \u201cIt takes all those hassles out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As Kennedy and his co-founders toiled at securing federal approval last year, they also went to investors to fund the venture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe feedback was \u2018You\u2019re crazy,\u2019\u201d Kennedy said. \u201cBut a lot of people said, \u2018If you can pull this off, it\u2019ll really be helpful.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy worried that people would be hesitant to share a private plane with other people. The opposite has been true, though. Kennedy said members enjoy chatting with other entrepreneurs and business executives on the flights. Sometimes they end up sharing rides home or to work appointments.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from two pilots, there are no service crew members. Drinks are stored near one of the front-row leather seats, often making the person who sits there the de facto bartender for fellow passengers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ll be the ones kind of making drinks for everybody,\u201d Kennedy said. \u201cIt\u2019s very much a pass-the-cup mentality.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"subhead_body\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Rise-logo.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-889\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Rise-logo.jpg?resize=300%2C203\" alt=\"Rise-logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Rise-logo.jpg?resize=300%2C203&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Rise-logo.jpg?resize=624%2C423&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flightlistpro.com\/private-jet-charter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Rise-logo.jpg?w=985&amp;ssl=1 985w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>On the rise<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Rise is privately owned, and Kennedy and chief growth officer Clynt Taylor are the company\u2019s majority owners. Kennedy closed on a first round of successful funding last month, but isn\u2019t publicly releasing figures. He said the company was profitable from the first day of full operations with revenues in the seven figures. He expects that to hit eight figures by the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p>The company started off with nine employees but now has 25. That excludes the mechanics and pilots, who work for the charter flight companies. Kennedy expects Rise\u2019s workforce to triple in a year.<\/p>\n<p>Kara Goldstein was one of the first employees on board. She left a job at The Brinkmann Corp. to join the startup. She said it was cool to watch a Houston flight land at Love Field last week, less than a year after she began trying to get people to buy into the concept.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were selling something that essentially didn\u2019t exist,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Company officials don\u2019t release exact membership numbers, but Kennedy expects Rise\u2019s client ranks to exceed 1,000 early next year. Right now there\u2019s a waiting list to join. But more members will come on board as flights and routes are added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe build capacity based on membership,\u201d said operations vice president Jeremy Kokenes.<\/p>\n<p>Glen and Vanida Ragland of Houston purchased a corporate membership, which allows more people to fly. The consultants were attracted by the idea of being able to arrive at the airport just minutes before a flight. One of their employees, who lives in Dallas, uses the membership frequently to balance work and life between the two cities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe likes the ability to go home if he needs to,\u201d Glen Ragland said.<\/p>\n<p>Which, to Kennedy, is the entire point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I can find a way to give time back to people, I\u2019m selling them the most valuable commodity there is,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h3>AT A GLANCE: Rise<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Founded: <\/strong>2014<\/p>\n<p><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a title=\"Rise's website\" href=\"http:\/\/iflyrise.com\/\">iflyrise.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>CEO: <\/strong>Nick Kennedy<\/p>\n<p><strong>Based: <\/strong>Dallas<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cities served:<\/strong> Dallas, Austin, Houston<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cities planned: <\/strong>New Orleans, Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Shreveport, Tulsa and a to-be-decided city in Arkansas<\/p>\n<p><strong>Membership: <\/strong>Monthly dues give members unlimited flights per month.
