VistaJet, has expanded its services to Nigeria, offering customised private jet services. The launch was held at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, recently.
Equipped with mid- to large-cabin, ultra-long-range Bombardier Global and Challenger business jets, the company boast of a fleet of over 300 jets worldwide.
The President of Europe and Africa at VistaJet, Philippe Scalabrini, announced the launch of the company’s first-ever roadshow static display in West Africa, with a Bombardier Challenger 605 with registration number 9H-VFM.
Scalabrini said, “VistaJet provides great value to clients in West Africa and is the perfect flying solution for West African corporates and businesses as a hassle-free and timesaving tool to connect world decision-makers domestically and across continents, boosting economies and driving global investments.
“Now with three dedicated aircraft in the region, VistaJet aims to accelerate on its trajectory as a key partner for the region’s economic development.”
He stated that the Program membership was tailored for those who require frequent or last-minute travel options, ensuring customers could access premium jets on their schedule and allowing members to book flights with as little as 24 hours’ notice.
“Once we have a client that signs a program membership with us, we have to guarantee that whenever they need to fly from Abuja to Accra, we have to provide an airplane. So, we either use an airplane that is already here or bring an airplane from Europe.
“Another very strong benefit of our fleet is that our clients have access to our fleet of aircraft worldwide. So, when our clients were signing up to be a member of Vistajet, they have access to the entire fleet or 300 aircraft worldwide,” Scalabrini asserted.
According to the Vistajet boss, Nigeria is a very big aviation market, and the firm is providing an alternative to aircraft acquisition.
