launched a revolutionary app to provide instant, bookable, one-way
quotes for private air travel, eliminating membership fees and
deposits, and providing unparalleled flexibility.
The ubair app is the first that allows flyers to instantly hail a jet
at the tap of an app. With no up-front fees or deposit requirements,
users access fixed, nationwide, one-way rates and availability that
were previously only accessible through jet card and fractional
programs.
Ubair LLC Co-founder and CEO Justin Sullivan, formerly president of
Private FLITE, stated, "Today's sophisticated flyer demands the utmost
in cost benefits, flexibility, simplicity and safety standards, and
ubair delivers all of that in an instant - our goal is to drive
exceptional utilization for our aircraft owners."
The ubair app allows users to search for flights in the USA, Canada and
the Caribbean, and in just seconds compare prices between six
categories of aircraft. Ubair offers aircraft from a baseline piston
aircraft (ubairTaxi) to an intercontinental Gulfstream (ubairHeavy),
with several categories in between. Users can select amenities such as
gourmet catering, WiFi and the newest planes (ubairElite), with
instant, paperless confirmation.
Ubair has also introduced ubairOwners, an optional ownership program
that offers a turnkey aircraft and charter revenue management system
for frequent travelers who can buy all, or part of, an asset in the
ubair system.
"Owning a jet with ubair saves time and makes money. As an owner of a
Falcon 50 in the ubairOwners system, I fly essentially 100 hours per
year for free, with huge tax benefits," said Andrew Czekaj, chairman of
Cambridge Holdings.
The ubair senior team comprises seasoned executives from both
commercial and private aviation.
Co-founder David Tait OBE helped write the business plan for Virgin
Atlantic Airways and was the first person Sir Richard Branson hired for
the new carrier. David spent 18-years in the U.S. as executive vice
president and executive director, successfully building the airline
from the ground up. Since 2008 David has led 'consultait', his own
aviation brand building and marketing consultancy.
Ubair's marketing director, Mark Greenberg, is a marketing and branding
