SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. and NEW YORK, Dec. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Set Jet, Inc. (“*Set Jet*”), a membership-based private jet charter program, and Revelstone Capital Acquisition Corp. (“*RCAC*”) (NASDAQ: RCAC), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, announced today that the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has declared effective RCAC’s registration Statement on Form S-4 ("Registration Statement") in connection with Set Jet’s and RCAC’s previously announced proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”). The Registration Statement provides important information about Set Jet, RCAC and the Business Combination.
The special meeting of RCAC stockholders will be held virtually via live webcast at https://www.cstproxy.com/revelstonecapital/sm2023 on December 27, 2023, at 11:30 Eastern Time (the “Special Meeting”) for stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 10, 2023 (the “Record Date”), at which RCAC’s stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon proposals to approve the Business Combination and related matters.

Tom Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Set Jet, stated, “We are pleased with the strides we have made from announcement of merger to our soon to be public debut. Since transaction announcement, we have strategically deployed a portion of the pre-close capital into our planned growth initiatives through an accelerated marketing strategy that we believe has driven meaningful brand awareness and early indicators of membership growth. The differentiation of Set Jet’s capital-light business model presents an attractive growth opportunity for investors and Set Jet’s dedicated members. As we transition and become a publicly traded entity, we have a core focus on increasing our service options and market share alike by establishing new hubs and route offerings to meet demand and grow our membership base nationwide.”
Morgan Callagy, Co-CEO of RCAC, commented, “This latest achievement towards finalizing the business combination confirms our belief in the underlying fundamentals of Set Jet’s business model run by veteran public operators offering a long-term value proposition for the public markets. We are excited to watch Set Jet become a publicly traded company and institute its next phase of growth with access to new markets in 2024 which we believe will increase value for all stakeholders.”
On July 18, 2023, Set Jet and RCAC previously announced their execution of a definitive Business Combination agreement. RCAC stockholders are urged to read the proxy materials, including, among other things, the reasons for the unanimous recommendation by RCAC’s Board of Directors that stockholders vote "FOR" the Business Combination proposal.
