Nicholas Rondeau, Vice President of Air Sales and Marketing at Flying Food Group (FFG), said that the company experienced "continued growth" in 2024 and anticipates more "opportunities for expansion" in 2025. He made this statement in FFG's Winter 2025 Newsletter.

"2024 was a remarkable year for Flying Food Group," said Rondeau, Executive Vice President, Air Sales and Marketing. "As both business and personal travel saw continued growth, we experienced a dynamic year with high activity levels, strong load factors, and increasing demand for our products and services.
