From ferrying travelers to deportees The aircraft, N917XA, has a long and interesting history. It started its life in the fleet of the now defunct Air Berlin before transferring to Orenair, another ill-fated airline based in Russia, until it was acquired by Swift Air. Swift Air was a subcontractor for ICE and has previously conducted flights out of Mesa Gateway Airport, one of ICE’s major airport hubs. Flight history shows the plane has made multiple flights to and from Mesa Gateway to other ICE airport hubs, as well as to Central and South American countries. A previous inspector general report listed the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway airport as the operational headquarters for ICE Air. Swift Air rebranded as iAero Airways in 2019, but went bankrupt in 2024. Eastern Air Express acquired much of iAero’s assets, including N917XA, in April 2024. Three months later, it was unveiled as Vance’s campaign jet. Eastern Air Express has also taken over the ICE Air contracts that iAero held. https://azmirror.com/2025/05/29/j-d-vances-campaign-plane-carried-anti-immigrant-rhetoric-now-it-carries-shackled-deportees/

Wusstet Ihr dass #Vance mit einer 22 Jahre alten Maschine von #AirBerlin (-> #Orena | Russland -> SwiftSir -> heute #EssternAirExpress) im Wahlkampf die Luft verpestet hat?
