Victor, the leading on-demand private jet charter service, has sponsored 'The Run To' Monaco, the most refined supercar event in the world, to offer a new level of luxury and excitement for the 2015 run.

As well as driving some of the world's most exclusive performance cars on a three-day road trip to the Monaco Grand Prix during the 19th to 24th of May via the best hotels and entertainment that Europe has to offer, participants in the 2015 run will be flown to and from the event in private jets provided by Victor.

Now in its fifth year, the 2015 Run to Monaco will see participants being flown by private jet to the Frank Gehry-designed Marques de Riscal Hotel in the Basque country for the start of five days of driving and high-end entertainment. Culminating in Monaco for the Grand Prix and partying aboard the renowned Run To yacht, the five-day event will encompass bull jumping, Michelin-starred dining, outdoor DJs, single seater motor racing and some of the best roads in Europe

Headquartered in London, Victor allows fliers to easily search, compare and book private jets from their computer or smartphone via the Victor iOS app. As well as providing private jet travel from the departure point at Farnborough, Victor will also give Run To participants the option of flying back from Monaco on private jet whilst their cars are securely transported home.

The Run to Monaco was founded by entrepreneur Chris Welch, combining his love of luxury travel and his extensive background in motorsport. Attracted by Victor's promise of ease-of-use and complete transparency, Welch approached Victor to provide private aviation services for The Run to Monaco because he saw how its services would work for him as an organiser and his customers as flight users.

“Whether you're booking a flight for yourself or for 60 of your best customers, Victor makes the process of chartering private jets simpler and more transparent,” said Welch. “As an entrepreneur travelling frequently for business, I appreciate the ease-of-use, the flexibility and the knowledge that I'm getting a fair deal with Victor. These things also matter to me as a customer and I know that the Run To Monaco participants are going to love the service, the app and the way that Victor makes private aviation simple and smart.”

“Participants on the Run To are some of the most discerning travellers in the world and we only work with partners who share our dedication to providing world-class customer service. Victor not only gives its customers transparency and ease-of-use, it also gives them access to the best planes, wherever and whenever they're needed.”

Clive Jackson, ceo of Victor, said: “The Run To Monaco is a legendary event for connoisseurs of fine cars, incredible entertainment, great cuisine, and living life to the fullest. It's only appropriate that one of the greatest luxury experiences in the world should start and end on a private jet and we're delighted to be able to offer runners the best option for on-demand private aviation.”
