ExecuJet Launches Special Charter Packages

An increased charter demand for the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand has seen ExecuJet Australasia, in cooperation with travel company Quintessentially, launch special packages that allow ‘time poor’ rugby supporters to still be at the heart of the action.

Packages include flying by private jet from any one of Australia’s major cities into the choice of three destinations - Auckland, Queenstown or Wellington, on the day of the match, being transferred to and from the stadium, before a chartered flight home after the game.

ExecuJet Australasia has already seen an increase in normal charter activity and demand of up to 35%.  The airline has secured a number of charters to the various games on their heavy jet fleet, with one client booking a Falcon 900C for the entire month of October to ensure that he and his guests get to both semi-finals and the final.

In November 2010, ExecuJet was issued with a New Zealand Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC) from the New Zealand Civil Aviation Authority, allowing the company to commence base aircraft operations in the country.

The ExecuJet Aviation Group, which manages 150 business jets worldwide, has operations in six regions – Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East.
