Jet Aviation is investing in a startup technology company to advance its development of a platform connecting freelance and contract aircrews for work with operators. The investment and collaboration agreement with hullo Aircrew serves to improve upon Jet Aviation’s own flight-crew staffing platform, the business aviation services company announced last month.

“The hullo Aircrew platform available today for crew and operators to effortlessly book trips will continue to be enhanced over the coming months under this new agreement,” said Elaine Lapotosky, senior director of Jet Staffing, an arm of Jet Aviation. “Additionally, we will further develop the platform for our Jet Aviation customers that we expect to be launching to the market in the fourth quarter this year.”

Expectations are for the agreement to result in a similar staffing and technology platform for Jet Aviation that Lapotosky explained will enable it to enter new markets and improve customer access to its staffing services. “We’re fine tuning the layout now to better support the U.S. marketplace,” she added.
