(PRWeb UK) November 9, 2009 -- The perfect gift has arrived for ski fanatics. Air Partner, a leading provider of private jet services, has launched its first Winter JetCard, a prepaid and bespoke private jet service that provides 10 hours of flight time without the financial onus of ownership.
The perfect solution for skiers who enjoy week away in the mountains, but who dread the long, drawn out journey to and from the resort, Air Partner reduces travelling times by hours. The company, which holds a Royal Warrant from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, flies to almost any destination, to any airport and at just 24 hours notice. Setting their own time schedule, fans of St. Moritz for example, could fly with Air Partner to Samedan, an airport that is just 20 minutes away from the exclusive resort. Those who fly by commercial airlines on the other hand, would land in Zurich, requiring an additional road journey that is over three hours long.
Moreover, for check-in, passengers are simply required to present their passports, walk to the aircraft and climb aboard; no ticket, no formalities and no waiting in departure lounges. Once onboard with just family and fri, the holiday begins and the journey is more akin to a fine dining club than the chore of travelling from A to B.
The new Winter JetCard has two new categories of jet to add to its existing light, midsize, large and global cabins: the very light jet, which is ideal for short journeys with a small party and the super midsize cabin, which provides more baggage capacity without the cost of the larger jets. This selection of jets is the widest available on any jet card and ensures that clients receive a service that is tailored exactly to their needs.
Less than half the cost of a normal JetCard, the hourly rates for the Air Partner Winter JetCard guarantee clients no fuel or landing surcharges, or positioning fees.
Each JetCard would provide the equivalent of three return trips to the Alps. The hours never expire, can be used throughout the year and are fully refundable upon request. A CarbonNeutral option is available for an additional 2% of the cost of the card.
Air Partner has over 50 years experience providing private aviation services to clients. It is fully listed on the London Stock Exchange, operates with no debt and has a cash position of £18m, as reported in June 2009.
