JetClass, an AI-enabled private jet booking platform with regional offices in Vienna and Dubai, has launched a tendering platform. In a move that underscores its robust governmental ties and commitment to integrating cutting-edge travel solutions with significant cultural and tourism initiatives, JetClass has also announced a strategic partnership with the Royal Commission for AlUla, the body responsible for preserving and developing the 2,000 year-old archaeological and historical site in northwestern Saudi Arabia.

The launch was celebrated with an exclusive dinner at Amelia, a downtown Dubai venue inspired by aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart. The event was attended by HE Sheikh Khalid Bin Ahmed Al Hamed, chairman and CEO at Al Hamed Enterprises, and other leading figures from the travel industry.

JetClass’s charter sourcing and booking platform addresses common challenges faced by travel agents, such as securing the right jet at competitive rates and managing multiple client requests. This platform, supported by AI-powered mobile and web applications, offers instant price estimates and streamlines the search for the perfect aircraft.

To meet increasing demand, JetClass has expanded its services to include features tailored for larger enterprises and government agencies such as the addition of tendering capabilities, implementing flight policies and pre-qualifying operators and aircraft.

“Our new charter tendering platform is not just a tool, but a game changer for the luxury travel industry,” says JetClass CEO and founder Wagas Ali. “It embodies our commitment to innovation and excellence, ensuring that every travel agent and client interaction is simplified and elevated to meet the highest standards. We are proud to lead this evolution, transforming how air travel is planned and executed.”
