US-based private jet charter app JetASAP that connects flyers directly with operators, commission free, has released a new trip availability feature that allows charter operators to post their real time empty leg, must-move and one-way flights directly to the app. These trips display immediately and are available for flyers to search and book in real time.
Live trips are typically only offered to industry insiders and are not available to the public, until now. JetASAP states that this new availability feature currently averages 200 trips a day across the US and Canada.
"Many operators have availability, even with charter demand at an all-time high. This is a huge opportunity for flyers to save money when many of them are seeing increasing rates," says CEO and founder Lisa Kiefer Sayer. "We are taking a different approach in offering this new live feature, and we want our subscribers to have the very best opportunity at booking these empty leg and one-way trips."
Many charter operators offer alternate routes to their posted availability. Flyers can contact operators with their desired routing to see if they can help, as the company's contact information is displayed on each trip. If the flyer wants to book, they can handle it directly with the charter operator outside of the app.
"This new feature gets us closer to our goal of building a true charter marketplace that is live, with real time data, where flyers and operators can connect directly to source and book their travel," adds Sayer.
JetASAP is currently working on its next feature, TripMATCH, where subscribers will be automatically matched and alerted to any of these trips with their requests and saved travel preferences.
