The New England Patriots, based in Boston, are well-regarded in the sports world for their records and achievements. The Patriots are considered among the top sports franchises globally.

Since settling at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, in 2002, the Patriots have maintained ties with their sponsor, Robert Kraft. In 2017, the team made headlines by purchasing two Boeing B767 aircraft to streamline their travel needs.

"One plane will be used as the main plane for the season, while the other will be the backup," stated the Patriots spokesperson. The necessity for such aircraft arises from challenges in scheduling and logistics faced by NFL teams, making private travel a practical choice.

Initially, Eastern Airlines managed their aircraft operations but legal issues led to Omni Air International stepping in to handle operations from 2024. These planes are designed with comfort in mind, equipped with in-flight entertainment and facilities suited for athletes.

Despite these advancements, some players have voiced concerns over certain outdated features such as a lack of WiFi and space constraints. However, the team's aircraft remain operational, managed by Omni Air International.

The Kraft family has extended the use of their aircraft beyond sports by supporting various humanitarian efforts, including transporting individuals for significant causes and assisting in delivering essential supplies during crises.

The Patriots recently expressed sorrow over a tragic incident involving an airline crash near Ronald Reagan Airport, underscoring their community engagement.

"We are grateful to the first responders who continue to work tirelessly during these incredibly difficult circumstances and our thoughts are with all those affected at this time," stated the Patriots' official website.
