Greenjets Private Jet Service Passes 2,000 Clients and Will Increase Seat
Prices Due To Expected Higher Jet Fuel Costs
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Nov. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Greenjets has attracted in
excess of 2,000 clients for its shared-ride private jet service since
initiating flights in April 2009. The attractiveness of shared private jet
service offering has been validated by the dramatic response from clients, and
demonstrates market acceptance and strong demand for more affordable and
responsible private jet service. Delivering per-seat pricing with guaranteed
confirmed service availability requires Greenjets to pay close attention to
demand levels and external factors such as fuel cost. In response to a recent
uptick in fuel cost, together with strong demand for Greenjets service,
Greenjets will raise its seat prices effective November 15.
The current IATA Jet Fuel Price Monitor, which is updated each week to provide
the latest price data from the leading energy information provider Platts,
shows the global average price paid at the refinery for aviation jet fuel is
on an upward trend, rising 8.2% from a week ago and 10.2% from a month ago.
In reaction to the recent upward cost trend for jet fuel and very strong
demand for Greenjets service, Greenjets on-demand seat prices will go up
approximately 10% on November 15. Also, the annual fixed trip prices for
Greenjetcard members will increase for clients enrolling after November 15.
Reservations placed prior to November 15 will be honored at the lower seat
prices, and Greenjetcard members who signed up prior to November 15 will enjoy
substantial savings, as they will pay the lower fixed trip price for up to one
year.
The impact of the higher seat prices for Greenjets on-demand travelers will be
a few hundred dollars per seat. The impact for Greenjetcard members will be
between $1250 per annum for a Blue level member to over $10,000 for a Black
level member.
Greenjetcard memberships do not require payment for flights in advance or on
account like other jet card programs; it is a pay as you go system with very
affordable seat prices. Greenjets clients pay only for the seats they need,
and can book easily online at www.flygreenjets.com or by calling toll free at
1-800-916-jets with a travel specialist. Since Greenjets combines travelers on
a single private jet instead of them flying separately, Greenjets can reduce
emissions and harmful environmental impacts, making Greenjets the most
economically and environmentally responsible way to fly private.
It's a simple idea: Sharing the flight with others reduces the number of jets
in the air and the impact on our environment. It also saves everyone time and
money. Greenjets is an easy and financially smart way to save time by flying
private, and remain environmentally responsible. Greenjets does not own or
operate aircraft - travel service is provided by FAA part 135 air charter
operators who maintain operational control at all times. Greenjets is
committed to the highest safety, convenience and comfort standards at the
lowest possible cost to you and to the environment.
