The New York Jets Flight Crew, recognized as the official cheerleading squad for the New York Jets, a prominent team in the National Football League (NFL). This dynamic group was originally founded in 2006 under the name New York Jets Flag Crew, featuring a small ensemble of six talented female flag carriers. Among them was Gina G., a standout from Kings Park, New York, whose exceptional performance skills and leadership were instrumental in driving the crew to immediate success and popularity.
The crowd went wild, and the demand for more excitement from the squad grew, leading to the formation of the inaugural New York Jets Flight Crew in 2007. This transformation marked a new chapter, as the team expanded and embraced a full cheerleading format. The Flight Crew quickly became a beloved part of the Jets’ game-day experience, capturing the spirit of the fans and adding an electrifying presence to the sidelines. Their choreographed routines, high-energy performances, and infectious smiles captivated the audience, solidifying their role as a vital component of the Jets’ tradition.
Currently, the Flight Crew is on hiatus until 2024 as they undergo a rebranding initiative. Despite this pause in performances, the members of the squad remain actively engaged in charitable endeavors, representing the Jets at various community events and continuing to make a positive impact.
