-Online booking engine for private aviation signs partnership with premium travel site-
Following the launch of its white label solution to the travel trade, PrivateFly.com, the unique online booking engine for private aviation, today announces a partnership with premium travel site LuxuryTravel.com.
The partnership allows LuxuryTravel.com's discerning users to benefit from PrivateFly's 'quick quote' facility
embedded within their site, giving immediate and accurate private jet estimates for any global trip. Users can
then choose to click through to PrivateFly.com to submit their flight request to all relevant aircraft
operators worldwide. Users can compare their options, complete their booking online or by phone, with
PrivateFly's expert team available 24/7.
Director of LuxuryTravel.com, Brian Tickle, comments: "LuxuryTravel.com is delighted to be working with
PrivateFly to provide our customers with the very best choice and great deals, making hiring a private jet
easy and affordable. We're excited to be able to add private jet pricing to our online offering as part of
our website re-launch. More and more of our clients are considering private jet charter - rather than enduring
airport security delays and lengthy ground transfers.
"We believe PrivateFly's service is a natural complement to our own - offering exciting online functionality for
the discerning traveller, backed by genuine expertise and exceptional service levels. We're looking forward to a
fruitful relationship for all concerned".
Adam Twidell, founder and director of PrivateFly, adds: "This is an exciting partnership, allowing us to
increase our reach to the luxury leisure traveller. And, we are exploring further such opportunities.
"Many people believe that private aviation is for business people but an increasing number of our clients now
use PrivateFly for holidays or celebrations. The commercial airline experience,
even when all goes smoothly, is at odds with a carefully-chosen, luxurious holiday.
A private aircraft offers luxurious comfort and privacy together with no delays or hassles - and, what's more,
in some cases the cost per seat can even be comparable with business or first class".
PrivateFly.com costs for luxury travel deals:
- Weekend in Scotland - From £3300*, seating 6-8 in a turboprop KingAir aircraft for a 2-night stay.
- Week in Marrakesh - From £28,800*, seating 6-8 in a medium jet aircraft.
