What are the issues to fly to Ascension Island by Private jet charter?
We were delighted to realize this flight. One of the main reason for that is the fact that getting to this remote island is very challenging. Only a few publica transportation flights are operated there.
Firstly we had to find the perfect solution for our client. They needed to fly from Europe but with a limited budget. Flying to middle of the south Atlantic requires an Ultra long Range private jet such as a Global express for instance. Yet , the client requested to lower this budget without reducing the comfort for the passengers. We offered a perfect solution with a Falcon 900 15 % less expensive with a technical stop on route ( in Abidjan).
Once the solution is book, the hardest part is to Obtain the traffic rights. And as the Ascension Island is a military base we had to push all the contact we had through the E.U. authorities. Our executive flights manager ,Philippe Bina, dedicated a lot of care and lot of patience to finally obtain an Okay from the local authorities,.
That kind of flight is a big motivation for us and one of the main reason we love our job: explore new flights, new routes, new horizon; big challenges and make them happen, you know when everyone say “it is not possible”, and in the end you succeed.
