Jonathan Gordon’s Flight Plan will help clients find the most cost-effective option for their international executive travel needs

ABA launches its travel options Flight Plan program for clients

Atlantic Bridge Aviation Group (ABA), based at London Ashford airport, has launched an intelligent software program that can comprehensively analyse a client's travel patterns and needs, and identify the most cost-effective option for them whether it be scheduled airline travel, ad hoc charter of an executive aircraft, block hours purchase, fractional ownership of an executive aircraft or full ownership and operation.

ABA's managing director Jonathan Gordon says the Flight Plan consultation is being offered on a complementary basis to companies or individuals who are interested in using executive air transport to meet their corporate travel requirements.

Gordon says: “The aim is to deliver a purely objective analysis – there is nothing built into the program that steers the client in any direction other than what is the best option for them. We are extremely proud of the new system, which has already proved an invaluable aid to pinpointing exactly what works best for our clients.”

Gordon explains how the programme works: “We conduct a client interview where we work our way through a series of questions designed to enable the program to identify the recommended form of travel and the net cost or saving against participating in our fractional ownership scheme.

“As we progress through the questions, Flight Plan is constantly analysing each piece of data and revising its recommended form of travel. Clients find this particularly useful since it shows them how even modest changes to travel preferences can impact on the best solutions offered. Once all the information has been programmed in, Flight Plan will recommend the optimum form of travel based upon a purely logical analysis.”
