Status Jet, an American jet charter brokerage that also provides consultancy services in the sale and acquisition of aircraft, has opened a new office in Paris, in the heart of the first arrondissement.

Since its inception in 2014, Status Jet has developed a team of experienced professionals that bring with them years of experience in the aviation and luxury service industries. With the stated mission of providing the highest level of client satisfaction, the company has developed a reputation for delivering clients unique, personalised experiences, with an equal emphasis on safety.

As Paris is a hub of European business jet travel, it was an easy decision on the part of company leaders to elect the City of Lights as the home base for European operations, and with an office on Paris's famous commercial street, Rue de Saint Honoré, the company's aim is to attract a global customer base while making the brand synonymous with luxury.

The Paris office will serve as Status Jet's European sales and project management centre. “We will provide consultancy services in the sale and acquisition of aircraft,” explains president David Gerard Henry. “And we will continue to arrange charter flights within Europe, the USA and other countries. Our Parisian office is specifically and solely designed to cater to the sales, project management and support needs of our European clients.”

Julian Barera has joined the team as its official representative in Paris. Aside from his considerable experience in aviation, Barera is also fluent in French, Spanish, English and Italian, and is conversational in German.
