Press Release

Linkinjet SA, a Swiss-registered company specialising in business and corporate jet charter, is establishing a new aircraft base at London's Biggin Hill Airport this month.

The company is launching the new charter service with the arrival of a new Bombardier Global 5000 (CS-TSL). In addition, one Linkinjet Falcon 7X will be positioned elsewhere in the London area. At Biggin Hill, the service will be using the FBO facilities of Rizonjet and the aircraft will be operated for Linkinjet by Executive Jet Management Services, a subsidiary of Netjets.

While maintaining their Geneva operations, Linkinjet co-founder & president Shirley Cervantes recognises that London continues to develop a dynamic business aviation market and that Biggin Hill plays a big part in it.

“Biggin Hill has a vast range of facilities and services for based and visiting aircraft of all types. We see this as being the right time and place to advance our business” she says.

Cervantes sees the demand for transatlantic charter from London getting stronger in the foreseeable future.

“City and regional planners are gradually recognising that smaller, dedicated airports like Biggin Hill can play a vital part in a wider transport system as gateway airports with full facilities. We know that business aircraft fly to more than three times the number of airports that are linked by scheduled services and this is what makes the difference. Business aviation has become a global business, new demands are evolving and Biggin Hill has a sharp focus on customer service” says Shirley Cervantes. 

Linkinjet offers a different style of highly personalised service. A dedicated aviation specialist is assigned to work directly with each client and continues as the regular personal contact. The arrangement is designed to anticipate all of a client's needs and expectations, from pre-flight to arrival and beyond.
