Premium Jet now accepting Bitcoin payments

With immediate effect, Premium Jet has decided to accept charter flight payments in the cryptocurrency Bitcoin and in doing so has become one of, if not the, first business aviation operators in Europe to offer such a service.

The modern digital payment system allows customers to transact directly and independently with Premium Jet. Payments via the Bitcoin system can be made at any time of the day, on weekends and during public holidays.

"The increasing popularity and the growth of this electronic currency (its value has more than doubled since beginning 2017) makes it an interesting payment option ," comments Fabio Hausammann, Premium Jet's managing director. "And although there are opinions stating that this might be a bubble, Bitcoin has repeatedly broken records without showing signs of "being in trouble”; in fact quite to the contrary."

Through offering the Bitcoin payment service, Premium Jet strives to provide its customers yet another option for easy payment and faster booking.
