Florida-based Aero Air Charter has created, together with Hangout Music Fest, a music festival package that will deliver and collect attendees of the three-day Alabama festival on their own jet charter.
“Hangout Fest is recognised as one of the best music festivals in the world and the biggest event in our region, and we thought the only thing that could make it better would be to combine it with an Aero jet charter to create the complete rock star experience,” explains partner Wendy Smith.
The Big Kahuna Air Package is a ticket and travel plan, combining a festival ticket with a private jet charter direct to Gulf Shores. The flight is a round-trip for up to six people, with additional options for larger parties. General manager Rick Simpson adds: “With this package we are extending the festival experience because the VIP's musical vacation will begin the moment they board our jet, and won't end until we get them back.”
Package purchasers can watch performances from the stage or from a luxury suite with good views, a private bar and catered food. Other perks include access to the famous backstage Artist Beach, stage-side swimming pools and hot tubs, all-inclusive gourmet meals and drinks, 24/7 personalised concierge service, door-to-door transportation and admission into the Thursday Kickoff Party.
Based in Pensacola, Florida since 2015, Aero Air Charter serves the Gulf Coast and Southeast regions with expanded brokerage services across the States and the Caribbean. It also partners with hospitals and medical agencies by delivering time-sensitive, life-saving donor organs and surgeons.
