Nigerian-based Falcon Aero has launched two new digital platforms for private jet bookings designed to make the service more accessible in response to increased demand.
The company announced CharterXE, an automated private jet booking platform, and FlyPJX, a charter seat booking platform.
CharterXE provides access to the company’s charter brokerage services through digital devises and on a mobile app, while Fly PJX is aimed at the end user, allowing them access to private flying without booking an entire aircraft.
Alongside the two platforms, Falcon Aero also announced its new business unit Vivajets which provides charter brokerage, fractional ownership, management, sales and leasing and consulting and training. Vivajets will be the company’s operational brand and will relate with regulators and stakeholders on certifications, permits and licenses for the group to operate.
Chukwuerika Achum, CEO, Falcon Aero (pictured) said the company was experiencing increased demand due to more Africans doing business across and outside the continent, and more tourists and businesses flying into Africa.
He said: “Operating through our business units, we aim to make a difference in an often exclusive and elusive market via the delivery of excellent customer service, adaption of technology, inclusive customer targeting and continuous innovation.”
