An airplane is no longer a luxury, it’s a tool.
In today’s cutthroat business environment, you need to do all you can to bolster sales, seek new business opportunities, and close deals. Looking for a competitive edge? Consider owning an airplane. With direct flights, you can see more customers in a day without the rush, get yourself and/or your key people from site to site quickly and – maybe just as important – back home that night.
Management
The Team
Services
Spend your time doing those things that bring value to your bottom line and avoid the annoyances of air travel. Skip the parking lots, the security checks, and the delays of commercial and large airports by boarding your own airplane instead. With access to over 5,000 airports in the US not served by airlines, chances are that you will land closer to your customers – giving you more time to do what you do best.
For company employees, especially executives, those hours spent traveling on airlines is costly “downtime.” An executive making $200,000/year earns about $100/hour but his or her value to the company is much higher – closer to $570/hour. Every time an executive must wait in a security line or change planes, thousands of dollars are being “lost” by the company. In addition, what is the cost in terms of employee morale of inefficient travel times and not being home?
With your own airplane, you can leverage time and make sure that it is spent on things that bring the most value to your company, your employees, and your customers.
