Jetcraft is landing at Nice Airport’s FBO this month. Following months of high demand tempered by travel restrictions, the company is bringing its sale, acquisition and trade opportunities directly to those holidaying on the Côte d’Azur, via a kiosk in the private terminal.
The airport is a popular choice for private jet companies – charter operators such as VistaJet already have a presence there, with offerings such as a ‘Jet-to-Yacht’ package. Nice Airport typically has the second-highest level of business aviation traffic in Europe, with analysts expecting a leap in activity as intra-European travel restrictions are lifted, as seen in the UK in the past few days. The latest data from WingX shows Europe is now leading the recovery in bizav activity worldwide.
Jetcraft is teaming up with the leading independent provider of maintenance support programs, Jet Support Services, Inc. (JSSI), to offer customers worldwide a unique, post-purchase unscheduled maintenance program for virtually all business jet makes and models.
The six-month post-purchase program will cover engines, airframe and APU after closing on all in-service aircraft acquired through Jetcraft.
Chad Anderson, president at Jetcraft, says: “What we are offering is peace of mind for aircraft buyers. Owners can feel confident in their new aircraft because, with this program, we are standing by the quality of the products in our inventory. Sellers who list with Jetcraft will also have an additional feature, which cannot be offered by any other dealer, to use in the marketing of their aircraft.
