PrivateFly adds large cabin Extended Range fixed rates, as private flyers look to fly further

PrivateFly, one of Europe's leading private jet providers, has today launched a fixed rate offering for a selection of popular long distance route pairs.

Its Aviator membership clients will be able to take advantage of a new menu of Extended Range fixed rate pricing, when flying to specific destinations from the UK, including the United States, the Caribbean and Dubai.

This provides a competitive, fixed hourly rate for longer route pairs, on a range of premium large cabin aircraft from PrivateFly's accredited network of private jet operators. For clients looking to make longer trips, this removes the uncertainty of fluctuating market pricing, which is currently a significant factor given the high demand for private jets.

The new menu of Extended Range rates is exclusively available to PrivateFly's Aviator members, who enjoy a range of elevated service benefits compared to standard on-demand charter. The membership is based on funds held on account and an annual membership fee of 10,000 euros. In addition to the new fixed rate menu for longer flights, benefits include enhanced cancellation terms; 'fly further' flight credits of up to 2% of funds deposited; premium catering and inclusive de-icing; and a London airport helicopter transfer each year.

Marine Eugène, European managing director of PrivateFly and Flexjet, said: “The ability to provide our loyal charter clients with new services and innovative solutions to their needs is something we are very proud of, and contributes to PrivateFly's outstanding reputation in the private aviation market. Our new Extended Range pricing adds to the considerable benefits available to our Aviator members and will provide enhanced booking confidence to the many who are now planning intercontinental trips in the coming months, including long-awaited travel to the U.S. or winter holidays to Dubai or the Caribbean. It provides the reassurance of being able to avoid the uncertainty of open market quotes, which can vary widely in the current market conditions.”

Members flying on these extended routes will be able to make use of PrivateFly's selection of premium large cabin aircraft, from its accredited operator network. They can choose a heavy jet, seating up to 12 passengers, or an ultra long range jet, which can carry up to 18, depending on the route.

When travelling between the UK and the U.S. or Caribbean, flights will be priced at 13,500 euros per hour on ultra long range jets, with available models including the Gulfstream G650, Global 5000/6000 and Falcon 7X/8X.

For flights between the UK and the Middle East, the fixed hourly rate is 11,700 euros for heavy jets including the Challenger 600, Legacy 600/650 and Falcon 900 or 13,500 euros per hour for ultra long range jet models.

PrivateFly works with 4Air, a specialist industry ratings system and consultancy, to measure flight emissions and manage sustainable operational activities.

Taking an industry-leading approach, every flight is offset to 300% of carbon emissions as standard, whilst empowering clients to take further action to meet their personal environmental commitment, including buying sustainable fuel or credits and investing in the development of future aviation technologies.
