Jet Aviation and hullo Aircrew have signed a collaboration agreement that includes funds to advance technology development for the flight crew staffing platforms of each company.

“We will provide funding to hullo Aircrew that will accelerate development of the technology for its aircrew staffing platform and enhance our staffing service offerings and customer experience,” says senior director of Jet Staffing Elaine Lapotosky. “The hullo Aircrew platform available today for crew and operators to effortlessly book trips will continue to be enhanced over the coming months under this new agreement. Additionally, we will further develop the platform for Jet Aviation customers, and we expect to launch to the market in the fourth quarter this year.”

hullo Aircrew provides a platform to connect freelance and contract aircrew members with operators in a fast and simple process. It is designed to help crew members maximise hours and ensure that operators avoid cancellation of important trips, facilitating more flights and offering an end-to-end efficient payment service.

“This agreement is for hullo Aircrew to develop its product so Jet Staffing can have a similar staffing and technology platform to enter new markets and improve customer access to services,” continues Lapotosky. “We’re fine-tuning the layout now to better support the US marketplace.”

hullo Aircrew director of business operations Edward Cousins adds: “We’re very excited to now be working with Jet Aviation in evolving our platform. In this fast paced and ever-changing industry, we know we are collaborating with the perfect partner, sharing one vision to become the go-to transglobal provider of freelance and contract crew.

“The geographical coverage that the combined Jet Staffing and hullo Aircrew teams can offer means that we are best placed to serve all of our clients needs on a worldwide basis.”
