Air Partner has launched a new mobile app for members of its JetCard programme. Available for iPhone and Android users, the app allows members to access their account and begin the booking process via smart phone. With 24/7 access to the app, members can price, plan and submit booking requests for trips as well as view statements online and trip history at any time.

“Air Partner is transforming the way both corporate and leisure travellers fly private by making our private aviation services more accessible and convenient than ever been before,” says David McCown, president of the Americas for Air Partner. “At our core, we are about service and meeting our customers' needs where they are. Our new mobile app does just that. Providing an even more seamless experience to our JetCard members and helping them save time, effort and money when arranging their private charter needs.”

Along with the ability to begin the booking process online or via their smart phone, the JetCard app allows users to view real time balance of flight hours or account funds; submit a booking request according to one's selected routes and travel dates; choose aircraft cabin category based on flight preference; add passenger information easily; select a one way, round trip or multi-route/multi-destination route on an itinerary; calculate flight hours easily during the booking process; arrange catering and ground transportation easily; and view upcoming flights and keep track of booking history.

The JetCard membership programme provides benefits for flyers including guaranteed availability, global reach, flight hours that never expire and fully refundable account balances. A dedicated account manager can also help members tailor their membership to their travel needs. Members can choose their membership type, cabin category and flight hours, and fixed hourly rates are deducted from the account balance. The membership programme also offers the option to fly transatlantic, with a competitive fixed hourly rate to and from any destination between the United States and Europe.
