Private jet firm Wheels Up ceasing operations at JeffCo airport, laying off 65

A private jet charter firm that was bailed out by Delta Airlines last year is laying off 65 employees as it ceases operations at a Jefferson County airport. New York-based Wheels Up informed the state of the cuts at the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in a Wednesday letter. The layoffs will occur by June 16, Chief People Officer Brian Kedzior wrote, and affect all Wheels Up employees based at the airport except for “selected administrative and office employees that will be maintained due to their role supporting other Wheels Up’s locations.” Those affected are generally mechanics and technicians, according to the letter. Wheels Up said in a press release issued after this story was initially published that the cuts in Jefferson County were part of a larger corporate restructuring.
