Newly-launched Emerald Jet focuses on bespoke green charter

New York City-based Emerald Jet Charter, a newly-launched broker providing global services, promises bespoke client service by aviation industry professionals on carbon neutral charter flights.

President Tracy Nuzzo (pictured) says: "As standard business practice, the company will offset carbon emissions for every charter flight it brokers without added cost. Charter aviation as an industry needs to get on board and even get ahead in reducing its carbon footprint."

Nuzzo adds: "Our offices are carbon neutral and so is every flight we broker. We are comm-itted to reducing the impact of our business on the environment both on the ground and in the sky. Reducing our climate impact is a core value of our company and something we take seriously."

Emerald Jet Charter, which has satellite offices in Atlanta, Georgia, and Connecticut, is working with Carbonfund.org to offset emissions in support of renewable energy, energy-efficiency and reforestation projects in the United States and abroad. Eric Carlson, president, claims: "These projects have reduced over £5 billion of greenhouse gas emissions globally."

In addition to fixed-wing, Emerald Jet also offers helicopter charter, including flights from New York City to the Hamptons. "Our management team is comprised of experienced corporate aviation professionals, including pilots, flight attendants and dispatchers who have spent years flying Part 135 charter flights," says Nuzzo.

"This knowledge offers great insight into the service of clients in all aspects of the flight from planning stages to the smallest details in the cabin of the aircraft."
