The Internet enables FlightTime to simplify air charter
as no other medium could. It helps us to aggregate supply
and demand for charter. Clients can arrange travel plans
in minutes via our online booking system, choosing from
more than 2,000 aircraft worldwide. In addition, our
web site provides information on a wide array of topics
designed to educate travellers on the increasing viability
of air charter services. From FAA requirements for charter
operators to a complete online help desk, FlightTime
provides answers to almost any question a traveller needs
to ask by simply logging onto www.FlightTime.com.
With just a few clicks of the mouse, customers can
get quotes and book domestic and international flights.
After logging on to the site, travelers enter the dates
and times they would like to travel, the departure and
destination cities, the number of passengers and the
amount of luggage each person will carry. Maps enable
travelers to decide which airports are most convenient.
Once all needs have been specified, FlightTime recommends
and provides a photo of the most appropriate aircraft,
while also giving a quote. Travellers may also request
information on alternate aircraft and receive corresponding
charter cost information.
In addition to our European expansion, which began
in 1997, FlightTime has made other acquisitions. In
February 2000, FlightTime acquired Wyvern Aviation Consulting
Ltd., an independent auditor of charter operator safety
systems. FlightTime also acquired an online charter
reservation system, AirCharter.com, which was the first
of its kind. In 1997, FlightTime acquired Charter Search
Network, a collegiate sports air charter company.
