VistaJet said demand for private flights continued to be on “an upward trajectory” as luxury travellers looked for privacy and safety during the continuing Covid-19 pandemic.

The specialist said it had organised 9,000 flights in the third quarter of 2021, up by 35% on the same period in 2020 – flights are also nearly 20% ahead of its pre-Covid figures.

Average passenger numbers have also risen by 23% year-on-year, while another trend sees clients looking to go on longer trips of up to 14 hours flying time on VistaJet’s fleet of Global 7500 jets.

VistaJet’s latest collection of Private World trips include a family “treasure hunt” trip to the Bahamas with Pelorus, exploring remote Greenland with Eyos, a desert adventure to Namibia with Wilderness Safaris, and the chance to create your own music album in Jamaica with Guest.

The company added that it would continue to work with more partners to offer trips to further destinations around the globe.
