Fractional and charter provider Volato has launched the Stretch Jet Card rewards program in a bid to serve new private aviation users, increase revenue, and improve operational efficiency.
Under the new program, Stretch card users booking a flight on one of Volato’s HondaJets provide ideal departure/arrival airport and time, as well as their flexibility from a quarter of a day to a full day. Once the flight is confirmed and if the departure time and airport vary from their request, cardholders are rewarded with “Stretch credits,” fractions of hours that are deposited into their card wallet. For a quarter of a day reward, cardholders will receive a 0.1 Stretch hour credit, and for a full day, they will have 0.2 hours deposited into their card wallet. Stretch Jet Card rates start at $55,000 for a 10-hour block.
“The industry has received an influx of leisure travelers who now represent the majority of private jet card aviation usage,” said Volato co-founder and CEO Matt Liotta. “The Stretch Jet Card was designed for this growing segment of people who enjoy flexibility in their lives and rewards them for it. We anticipate strong interest from those in existing, fixed schedule programs who can secure a Stretch Jet Card for supplemental lift and potentially reduce their cost of flying by being rewarded when they can be flexible.”
