VistaJet records increase in new members and flights

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 30 (Bernama) -- Global business aviation company VistaJet recorded an increase of new members globally and number of flights up prominently in 2018 as it enters its 15th year in the industry.

VistaJet made significant progress in 2018 where new contracts of its flagship Program membership grew by 31 per cent and the number of flights increased by 25 per cent.

Its aircraft utilisation also grew by 20 per cent across its fleet of over 70 aircraft – equating to enough hours to fly each aircraft around the world 20 times on average – due to increase in demand for longer flights and comfort, a statement said.

Europe proved a significant market for corporates and individuals flying privately, accounting for 48 per cent of total VistaJet flights in 2018, while New Program Members grew significantly by 105 per cent in the region, with the majority of growth coming from clients based in the UK.

North America remained a key growth driver for VistaJet and accounted for the largest increase in flights in 2018, with a rise of 46 per cent.

VistaJet continued to lead the market in terms of innovation and service with the introduction of new experiences for its members, partnerships with art and sports partners, as well as launches of extensive traveller’s programmes for children in private aviation.
