A convenient and competitively priced solution was needed to get players to the game and back with ease.
Flying a Swiss football team to The UEFA Europa League game in Portugal
A Swiss football team needed help flying to the UEFA Europa League game in Portugal. With many airlines refusing to operate at their local airport due to it only having one short and narrow runway, an aircraft charter was the best way to ensure players made it to the game and back with ease. The team was also liaising with an operator directly, so we needed to find the most convenient and competitively priced solution in order to secure the booking.
Our Solution
Route: Bern > Lisbon > Bern
Aircraft: Boeing 737-800
We negotiated a budget-friendly rate to charter a Boeing 737-800, which was an ideal size for the 60 passengers and quieter than a turboprop.
The aircraft was flown by an experienced pilot who could operate at the client’s preferred airport. It could also layover in Lisbon between flights to keep costs down.
The Finer Details
Rapid Response: Our experienced team was able to offer a solution on the same day the request came in.
Attention to Detail: We arranged branded headrest covers for the charter, personalising the cabin for the team.
Personal Touch: Our broker offered the Club a flight ride free of charge, travelling with the team to ensure all the team’s requirements were fulfilled.
