Aria Mary Francis is about to have an exciting summer. Grenada’s well-known modeling talent has been hand-selected from many entrants to participate in the Miss. Jetset 2017 competition, hosted by the prestigious Jetset Magazine.

The competition, which begins on Wednesday, June 7, will entail several rounds of voting, which will determine the finalists and eventual winner for the Jetset competition. Participants must seek support from their various local and online communities, to vote them through the various rounds of competition.

This year’s winner will be picked up by a private jet and accommodated in a luxury hotel, for a lavish photo shoot. That person will also win USD $100,000 in cash and prizes and, similarly to A-list celebrities such as Scarlett Johansson, Halle Berry, and Jennifer Lopez, the winner will be featured on the cover of Jetset Magazine. Female applicants, worldwide, who are over the age of 18 can register and will be informed if they qualify. In 2016 more than 12, 000 women, with a combined social media reach of more than a billion people, participated.

Jetset Magazine, founded in 2006 and based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is the premiere, affluent lifestyle print and online publication. Their readers have an average household income of $5.3 million and their content reaches the 1%  of the rich and famous, who control more than 50% of the world’s wealth. Published quarterly, Jetset is distributed in private jets, private yachts and jet terminals, yacht charters, exclusive resorts and events around the world.

The competition has a charity aspect to it and this year Jetset Magazine is again partnering with The B+ Foundation to help raise funds and awareness for children fighting cancer. Last year, through the Miss. Jetset competition, the foundation received nearly a quarter of a million dollars in funding.

Aria, who also has an avid interest in social work, will be actively informing the public of how they can support her on her journey in the Miss. Jetset Competition through her various social media platforms, which are:
