A small fleet of NetJets aircraft recently delivered some top European footballers to Porto, Portugal, where they took part
in a head-to-head match to raise money for UNICEF and the Luis
Figo Foundation.
NetJets provided transportation for the likes of Toldo, Raul, Rui Costa, Zidane and Pires, as its contribution to the charity event.
Figo said: “I’m very grateful for NetJets’ help in bringing all of these talented players and coaches to Porto. As a fractional owner of a NetJets plane myself, I know how incredible these jets are.”
The amount collected for the
two charities was not announced but was expected to be in the region of 100,000 euros.
The NetJets Europe fleet includes the Citation Bravo and Excel, and Gulfstream GIV-SP and GV.
