25-Hour, 1/32nd Jet Share Ownership Option Delivers Jets From US$125,000
LONDON, June 17, 2010 - NetJets Europe today announces a new, trial offer allowing you
to acquire a fractional ownership stake of 1/32nd of a jet - equivalent to 25
hours of flight time per year - from as little as US$125,000. This builds on
the ongoing success and interest in the fractional ownership model for jets
that NetJets has seen as business and first class fliers seek to escape the
travel disruptions commercial airlines have faced in recent months.
Fractional ownership, which allows NetJets Europe's customers
to acquire a fraction of a jet proportionate to their usage, empowers owners
to escape most of the travel headaches commercial airline passengers have to
deal with. Avoiding strikes, having the flexibility to fly around disrupted
regions, and being on the plane within ten minutes of arriving at the airport
are just some of the key benefits new NetJets Europe owners will experience
over commercial passengers. They will also be flying with an airline with the
best safety culture and training in the industry, and with the biggest and
best equipped fleet of aircraft to suit every business' and individual's
needs.
The new offer supplements NetJet Europe's existing fractional
programmes, which start at 50 hour shares of aircraft, and its 25 hour
Private Jet (www.netjetseurope.com/) and Corporate Cards. Unlike the
cards, which provide 25 hours of jet usage each year, the new 1/32nd share
offer fixes NetJets Europe's prices for three years and provides savings
based on the current value of jets:
"Despite the turbulent global economy, there's never been a
better time to buy a fractional share in a jet (www.netjetsuk.com/),"
explains Emily Williams, Sales Director, NetJets Europe. "Jet prices are low,
commercial airlines are facing massive problems and people that value their
time are looking for alternatives. The launch of a new NetJets Europe 1/32nd
share (netjetsuk.com/your-solutions/share/) is in response to a new
demand from people who are frustrated by the first and business class
commercial experience."
This news follows on a positive report looking at the future
of the fractional ownership sector in Europe, entitled "Is the Future
Fractional." NetJets Europe's Williams explains: "The report found a great
deal of optimism for the growth of the fractional sector in Europe. Whilst we
are seeing some signs of recovery in the global economy, there is an enduring
awareness of the wisdom of sharing resources more efficiently, and the
fractional model is perfectly placed to address this."
