TIA MINZONI
A LEADER IN BESPOKE PRIVATE CHARTER & MEMBERSHIP AVIATION Tia Minzoni is the CEO of Stella Jet Brands, a women-owned private
aviation company based in Dallas, Texas. It began as a boutique business
but now has a national luxury aviation network in addition to Stella
ShAire, a membership club, and Stella Experiences, its lifestyle arm,
which offers celebrity meet-and-greets and high-end onboard events. With
the capability to link more than 7,000 aircraft operators worldwide, Stella
Jets provides bespoke charter and membership programs centered around
community, ease, connectivity, and the possibilities of private aviation.
A MOTHER-DAUGHTER EXECUTIVE PRIVATE AVIATION TEAM
Tia acquired Stella Jets in 2022 and rebranded it as a women’s empowerment
platform with a passion for disrupting leadership in a traditionally male-
dominated industry. She and her daughter, Jasmine Johnson, run one of the
country’s few female-owned private aviation firms. Together, they have
built a culture of innovation, hospitality, and open arms. With its move to
Texas, Stella Jets has seen huge growth, including 40% higher requests
and the successful launch of its Stella ShAire membership platform.
