Dear Investor, The past year marked a pivotal point in our transformation, as we stabilized private jet revenue, strengthened our revenue mix, invested in operational reliability and fleet modernization, and enhanced the customer experience, driving a meaningful improvement in profitability and delivering the first Adjusted EBITDAR profit in the company’s history in the fourth quarter. This transformation has required a sharp focus on operational discipline, exiting unprofitable flying and aircraft, and reshaping our strategy and brand. While important work remains, we are well on our way to moving beyond our historical challenges and firmly establishing the company as a premium, operationally excellent aviation solutions platform. In 2026, we expect to complete our membership program and fleet transition and fully align our products, services, and operations with our strategy. With a modernized fleet, a stronger mix of corporate and high-value customers, continued operational and cost discipline, and the unique competitive advantages from our Delta partnership, we are advancing toward our long-term objective of sustainable, profitable growth. Q4 2025 Letter to Our Shareholders For more detailed information on Wheels Up’s financial and operating results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, please visit https://investors.wheelsup.com. In addition, please see “Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” “Reconciliations of Non- GAAP Financial Measures” and “Definitions of Key Operating Metrics” at the end of this Investor Letter for more information about measures described herein. 2026 Priority: Build upon our strengthened financial foundation Our top financial priority has been to reduce losses and reset margins by shifting demand to our new fleet and membership program. In the fourth quarter, our net loss improved by $59 million, or 67%, compared to the prior year. Since the first quarter of 2024, Adjusted Contribution Margin expanded from near breakeven to the mid-to-high teens on relatively flat Total Gross Bookings, with further improvement expected as the fleet transition continues.

While revenue has been impacted by the planned shift to our new membership program, it was partially offset by strong performance in our global charter business and corporate membership sales. Importantly, we have stabilized our private jet flight revenue and customer demand for charter options continues to grow. These revenue sources provide attractive margins that support our transition. $246 $197 $196 $194 $205 $178 $190 $185 $184 4Q23 1Q24 2Q24 3Q24 4Q24 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 Total Revenue ($M) $287 $225 $264 $255 $314 $242 $262 $266 $269 4Q23 1Q24 2Q24 3Q24 4Q24 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 Total Gross Bookings ($M) Focused execution of our strategy in 2025 culminated in the first-ever Adjusted EBITDAR profit in the company’s history. Cost discipline has been a key driver, with more than $70 million in annualized cost reductions in progress through organizational streamlining, fleet simplification, and better alignment of overhead. Within our membership business, corporate accounts are our fastest growing channel, increasing 35% year- over-year. Corporate membership fund sales increased 25% on an improving customer mix. Our corporate membership fund sales have grown at a compound annual growth rate of 25% since the Delta investment in 2023, underscoring the unique competitive advantage of our commercial partnership. $32 $45 $106 $156 $199 $246 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Corporate Membership Fund Sales ($M) +25% CAGR 2023-25 3 ($55) ($41) ($29) ($12) ($3) ($19) ($25) ($20) $37 4Q23 1Q24 2Q24 3Q24 4Q24 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 Adjusted EBITDAR ($M) $202 $151 $164 $155 $164 $148 $158 $155 $162 4Q23 1Q24 2Q24 3Q24 4Q24 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 Private Jet Flight Revenue ($M)

2026 Priority: Grow our premium business while exiting unprofitable legacy products Customer response to the Wheels Up Signature Membership, which introduced our Phenom and Challenger aircraft into our programmatic offering, has exceeded initial expectations, with nearly 600 memberships sold in the first five months. In the fourth quarter, approximately 75% of sales were conversions of existing customers with the remaining 25% coming from new and returning customers. And Signature Members aren’t just signing up at a higher-than-expected pace. Perhaps more importantly, they are flying more hours and at higher rates than legacy members, creating a strong pipeline of demand for our new fleet and supporting top-line growth. To further capitalize on this momentum, we are now limiting new membership sales to the Signature product. 0 65 98 277 514 592 Total Signature Members 4

To support demand, we expect to nearly double the size of our Phenom and Challenger fleets over the next year. We are building these fleets in a capital-efficient manner by acquiring mid-life aircraft and investing in upgrades such as new interiors, paint, and high-speed satellite Wi-Fi. We are approximately halfway through our fleet transition and expect to complete the exit of unprofitable legacy fleets from revenue service by the end of this year. 2026 Priority: Invest in operations, customer experience and brand Operational excellence is central to our mission. Thanks to the hard work of every individual on our team, I am proud to say that we are now consistently achieving the highest On-Time Performance and Completion Rate performance in the company’s history. The momentum we built, particularly in the little over a year since we first announced our fleet modernization strategy, resulted in 14 consecutive days of zero cancellations to kick off 2026, with a best-in-class experience delivered across more than a thousand flights. This is the effect of that strategy in action. Since entering service, the Phenom and Challenger aircraft have consistently outperformed legacy aircraft across operational reliability, customer satisfaction, and fleet profitability, with further improvements expected as we continue to scale. 35% 29% 22% 65% 59% 38% 12% 40% EOY 2023 EOY 2024 EOY 2025 Active fleet composition Turboprop Legacy jet Premium jet 5 97% 98% 99% 99% 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 Completion Rate 85% 88% 89% 91% 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 On-Time Performance 5 16 24 32 1Q25 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 Brand Days

Beyond reliability, we further enhanced our overall customer experience and operational efficiency under a single brand and sales team structure. As part of this shift, we redesigned our sales approach to a more personalized “trusted advisor” model, offering tailored aviation solutions across on-fleet membership, global charter, and hybrid private/premium commercial travel through our partnership with Delta. This integrated approach allows us to deliver the most seamless, customer-centric travel experience in private aviation. In the air, our fully branded and refurbished fleet, state-of-the-art satellite Wi-Fi, curated culinary and ground transportation options continue to offer seamless and consistently elevated service to our customers. Installation of high-speed satellite Wi-Fi is underway -- our first Phenoms and Challengers with streaming- quality Wi-Fi are in service and we expect a substantial majority of our premium jets will have upgraded Wi-Fi by the end of the year. These investments are intended to drive higher customer satisfaction, improved retention, and stronger long- term loyalty. Conclusion While important work remains, the most consequential pieces of our transformation are now firmly in motion. We have strengthened our foundation by tightening operational discipline, exiting unprofitable flying and aircraft, and reshaping our strategy and brand around a premium aviation solutions platform. In 2026, our focus is straightforward. Grow our premium business through Signature Membership. Scale our modernized Phenom and Challenger fleet in a capital-efficient manner to meet demand. And continue investing in operations, customer experience, and brand. These priorities are designed to expand contribution, improve consistency, and reinforce confidence in the durability of our model. Thank you for your continued support and commitment to Wheels Up as we continue our journey in building a strong, growing and profitable business.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This investor letter includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDAR, Adjusted Contribution and Adjusted Contribution Margin. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should not be considered as an alternative to any performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP counterparts are included in the sections titled “Definitions of Non- GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” respectively, in this investor letter. Wheels Up believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors about Wheels Up. However, there are certain limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and their nearest GAAP measures, including that they exclude significant expenses that are required to be recorded in Wheels Up’s financial measures under GAAP. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore, Wheels Up’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Additionally, to the extent that forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non-GAAP basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA & Adjusted EBITDAR. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as Net income (loss) adjusted for (i) Interest income (expense), (ii) Income tax expense, (iii) Depreciation and amortization, (iv) Equity-based compensation expense, (v) Acquisition and integration related expenses and (vi) other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance, including but not limited to, restructuring charges. We calculate Adjusted EBITDAR as Adjusted EBITDA, as further adjusted for aircraft lease costs. We include Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR as supplemental measures for assessing operating performance, to be used in conjunction with bonus program target achievement determinations, strategic internal planning, annual budgeting, allocating resources and making operating decisions, and to provide useful information for historical period-to-period comparisons of our business, as each measure removes the effect of certain non-cash expenses and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDAR is included as a supplemental measure, because we believe it provides an alternate presentation to adjust for the effects of financing in general and the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisitions of aircraft, which may be acquired outright, acquired subject to acquisition debt, including under the Revolving Equipment Notes Facility, by capital lease or by operating lease, each of which may vary significantly between periods and results in a different accounting presentation. Adjusted Contribution & Adjusted Contribution Margin. We calculate Adjusted Contribution as Gross profit (loss) excluding Depreciation and amortization and adjusted further for equity-based compensation included in Cost of revenue and other items included in Cost of revenue that are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted Contribution Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted Contribution by total Revenue. We include Adjusted Contribution and Adjusted Contribution Margin as supplemental measures for assessing operating performance and for the following: to be used to understand our ability to achieve profitability over time through scale and leveraging costs; and to provide useful information for historical period-to-period comparisons of our business and to identify trends.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR The following tables reconcile Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR to Net loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure (in thousands): Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (1) Consists of expenses associated with the Company’s global integration efforts, including charges for employee separation programs, costs associated with restructuring or terminating third-party contracts, and third-party advisor costs. (2) Consists of expenses incurred in connection with the execution of our fleet modernization strategy first announced in October 2024, which primarily includes expenses associated with transitioning our Bombardier Challenger 300 series and Embraer Phenom 300 series aircraft to our operations and pilot training programs aligned to our fleet modernization strategy, as well as certain cash and non-cash costs incurred associated with exiting legacy private jet models.

Key Operating Metrics In addition to financial measures, we regularly review certain key operating metrics to evaluate our business, determine the allocation of resources and make decisions regarding business strategies. We believe that these metrics can be useful for understanding the underlying trends in our business. The following table summarizes our key operating metrics: (1) In thousands. (2) For the year ended December 31, 2025, Utility for the Embraer Phenom 300 series, Bombardier Challenger 300 series and legacy fleet aircraft in our controlled fleet were 60.7, 48.1 and 30.8 hours, respectively. Utility for the three months ended December 31, 2024 reflects the inclusion of 17 Embraer Phenom 300 series aircraft from November 13, 2024 to the end of the respective period and zero Challenger 300 series aircraft.

Definitions of our key operating metrics are below. From time to time, we may adjust the definitions and calculations of our key operating metrics to reflect changes in our business or new data types, or to improve the accuracy and usefulness of such metrics. Our calculation of our key operating metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Total Gross Bookings and Private Jet Gross Bookings. We define Total Gross Bookings as the total gross spend by our members and customers on all private jet flight services under our membership program and charter offerings, all group charter flights, which are charter flights with 15 or more passengers (“Group Charter Flights”), and all cargo flight services (“Cargo Services”). We believe Total Gross Bookings provides useful information about the scale of the overall global aviation solutions that we provide our members and customers. We define Private Jet Gross Bookings as the total gross spend by our members and customers on all private jet flight services under our membership program and charter offerings (excluding Group Charter Flights and Cargo Services). We believe Private Jet Gross Bookings provides useful information about the aggregate amount our members and customers spend with Wheels Up versus our competitors. For each of Total Gross Bookings and Private Jet Gross Bookings, the total gross spend by our members and customers is the amount invoiced to the member or customer and includes the cost of the flight and related services, such as catering, ground transportation, certain taxes, fees and surcharges. We use Total Gross Bookings and Private Jet Gross Bookings for historical period-to-period comparisons of our business and to identify trends, including relative to our competitors. Live Flight Legs. We define Live Flight Legs as the number of completed one-way revenue generating private jet flight legs in the applicable period, excluding empty repositioning legs, Group Charter Flights and Cargo Services. We believe Live Flight Legs is a useful metric to measure the scale and usage of our platform and our ability to generate Flight revenue. Private Jet Gross Bookings per Live Flight Leg. We use Private Jet Gross Bookings per Live Flight Leg to measure the average gross spend by our members and customers on all private jet flight services under our membership program and charter offerings for each Live Flight Leg. Utility. We define Utility for the applicable period as the total revenue generating flight hours flown on our controlled aircraft fleet, excluding empty repositioning legs, divided by the monthly average number of available aircraft in our controlled aircraft fleet. Utility is expressed as a monthly average. We measure the revenue generating flight hours for a given flight on our controlled aircraft as the actual flight time from takeoff to landing. We determine the number of aircraft in our controlled aircraft fleet available for revenue generating flights at the end of the applicable month and exclude aircraft then classified as held for sale. We use Utility to measure the efficiency of our operations, our ability to generate a return on our assets and the impact of our fleet modernization strategy. Completion Rate. We define Completion Rate as the percentage of total scheduled flights operated and completed, excluding customer-initiated flight cancellations. On-Time Performance (D-60). We define On-Time Performance (D-60) as the percentage of total flights flown that departed within 60 minutes of the scheduled time, inclusive of air traffic control, weather, maintenance and customer delays, excluding all cancelled flights. Beginning with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025, we changed the presentation of Completion Rate and On-Time Performance (D-60) to include wholesale flights, which we believe better aligns those metrics to information that we use internally to evaluate our operations and reported Live Flight Legs, which includes wholesale flights. Completion Rate and On-Time Performance (D-60) for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 reported in the table above includes wholesale flights, which were previously excluded from such metrics in the Company’s filings with the SEC beginning with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2024 through and the 2024 Annual Report. Completion Rate and On-Time Performance (D-60) reported in the Company’s previously filed 2024 Annual Report, which excluded wholesale flight activity, were 98% and 80%, respectively.
