Regis Antonin de Ramel (born August 20, 1974) is an aviation business owner and philanthropist. He is the owner of an aircraft management, maintenance, charter and flight training services company with locations in Wilmington, Delaware (ILG); Blue Bell, Pennsylvania (LOM); and Lancaster, Pennsylvania (LNS). He also owns an air taxi operation servicing the mid-Atlantic and Northeast United States. All four are marketed under the unifying brand of flyADVANCED.
de Ramel is the son of Elizabeth Prince and the late Regis de Ramel. He lived in Monaco until the age of six. At that time, his family relocated to Newport, Rhode Island.
His great-great-grandfather was two-term Mayor of Boston Frederick O. Prince, who oversaw improvements to the city’s sewer and park systems. He was also a key figure in the construction of the Boston Public Library and a lineal descendant of the French philosopher Montesquieu. Great grandfather Frederick H. Prince was a successful businessman, who made his fortune through investments in a variety of business ventures, including the Union Stockyards and Transit Company of which he served as chairman. Frederick H. Prince’s son, Norman Prince, founded and then flew with the all-American Lafayette Escadrille in World War I. To form the squadron, he fought the isolationist attitudes of America, the French military fearful of spies and even the wishes of his own father, who pressed Norman into attending law school at Harvard. Norman Prince died while serving the Lafayette Escadrille in 1916. Great grandfather Frederick Henry Prince, Jr. also joined and flew for the Escadrille.
De Ramel earned his bachelor's degree in Economics from Washington College, Maryland. He earned his private pilot license at the age of nineteen.
de Ramel began his career at CMD Investors, Inc., a division of F. H. Prince & Co., a company which developed the first master-planned office park in the country. Moving back to Newport, Rhode Island, he founded Air Newport, an air-taxi business. In 2003, he sold Air Newport and joined Cirrus Aircraft as Regional Sales Director, covering the Mid-Atlantic region. In 2007, he left the position at Cirrus to form the partnership Stratus Alliance, an aggregation charter operation for Cirrus owners aimed at business travelers. In 2009 he purchased the assets of Advanced Aircraft at the Lancaster Airport in Lititz, Pennsylvania and formed Advanced Lancaster LLP.
