Answering the nationwide demand for greater charter flexibility, George J Priester Aviation has expanded the 1945 Card, its customisable jet card programme. With custom pricing to fit each client's mission profile, the 1945 Card is available for flights on any of the George J Priester Aviation family of brands.

“The 1945 Card meets the needs of the individual better than other charter options,” says national charter sales director Rustin King. “Travellers discover greater flexibility with no blackout days or peak-day surcharges. They're easily scheduling an elevated flight experience, while locking in cost certainty that works well with their specific mission.”

The 1945 Card is available starting at a convenient 25-hour option, and offers users the advantages of guaranteed availability, point-to-point pricing and fixed hourly rate costs. Individuals will be able to purchase and use the 1945 Card within each regional base for the 80 aircraft operated nationwide by Priester Aviation, Mayo Aviation and Hill Private Aviation.

The custom pricing model offers a personalised solution unavailable at other jet card programmes, built around travellers' specific mission needs.

Named for the year that George J Priester founded his namesake aviation services company, the 1945 Card serves as the foundation of the modern organisation the company is today, with a customer-first focus across its family of brands. The 1945 Card expands the capabilities and availability to all three brands, building off its previous jet card programme offered only within the Midwest.

Other advantages for 1945 Card holders include no repositioning costs, easy reloading and transparent accounting.
