Austria's TJS adds Citation M2 Gen2 for charter

Tyrolean Jet & Service (TJS, Innsbruck) has added a Citation M2 Gen2 for charter, the company announced.

The 2024-built unit, OE-FPJ (msn 525-1180), is configured for up to five passengers. It began operating under the 'TJS' code on November 7, flying between Graz and Vienna.

The very light jet joins two other Citation-series aircraft in TJS's fleet, including a San Marino-registered Citation Jet 1 inducted in May, and a Citation XLS+ parked at Bournemouth since June 26.

In 2024, shortly after being acquired by Gama Aviation (GMA, Farnborough), TJS retired a Citation Jet 1+ and two Citation Jet 2s. The Citation Jet 1+ and a Citation Jet 2 remain owned by Gama Aviation and were reregistered in the Isle of Man in October. Gama Aviation also added a Guernsey-registered Citation M2 in June.

TJS's executive jet fleet further includes a Phenom 300E parked at Berlin Brandenburg since March 20, a Praetor 600 inducted in March, and a Hawker 800XP registered in San Marino and added in September. TJS Malta operates a Falcon 7X.

Earlier this year, TJS entered a partnership with Switzerland-based charter broker inX.aero to operate two E145s, the first of which entered service on October 28. A pre-owned E175 is scheduled to join the agreement in the second quarter of 2026.

This newly added Citation M2 Gen2 was initially delivered to Avcon Jet (AOJ, Vienna) in late 2024. The aircraft was available for charter on a floating base model.

Following this phase-out, Avcon Jet continues to operate a Citation M2 alongside other Citation-series aircraft, namely a Citation Jet 2+, a Citation Jet 4, a Citation Jet 4 Gen2, and a Citation X, after retiring a second unit in November. Avcon Jet Malta operates a Citation M2 inducted in May, two Citation XLS jets, and a Citation Sovereign+, while Avcon Jet North America manages a Citation Jet added earlier this year.
