500 staff to Sicily, all at once!
A manufacturer’s anniversary trip. Destination: Sicily, and all staff members – 500 in number – were allowed to come along. Yes, and then of course you prefer to keep everything together, because such a party starts with us even before departure. Global Aviation chartered a Boeing 747 from the French company Corsair, because they could all fit in there. But of course, such a fun trip only becomes a real party for your employees when you fall from one “Ooohh” into another “Aaahh. That started – before departure – with a great buffet at the airport. On the beautiful Italian island, an incentive agency had organized a spectacular party with renowned artists. If you want to impress, everything has to be right and you have to treat all your guests like VIPs. After three days the group set foot on Schiphol Airport again, very satisfied.
Rushed back to the Netherlands
One day Global Aviation received a call from a relative of a patient. At his vacation destination, the patient had suffered a heart condition and was admitted to the hospital. However, the patient wanted to be transported to the Netherlands as soon as possible for further treatment as he did not have much confidence in the local medical facilities. His insurance company did not want to transport him so Global Aviation was called in. After approval of the attending physician, the patient was transported to the Netherlands the very next day.
The fairy tale of the princess … with 20 suitcases!
Once there was a beautiful princess from Qatar, who liked shopping in Europe very much. Several capital cities were her preference. And so they called Global Aviation to charter a private jet for her. Global Aviation arranged a beautiful Falcon 2000, a luxury twin-engine jet for 10 people, with extra cargo space, because the princess had big plans.
As is a princess’ custom, her plane was ready for departure, nicely on time, fully fueled and well stocked, when it was learned that the luggage was a little more than planned. 20 Suitcases had to go, and not the smallest we were told! The suggestion by us to immediately change the aircraft to a slightly larger type was a bit too much for even them. The result was that the princess and her purchases were temporarily separated by air and road transport, but in the end everything turned out all right! As it should, … right?
The Chamber of Commerce…talk about loyal customers!
Global Aviation has been arranging for 16 years!!! flights for the Chamber of Commerce to CeBIT, one of the most important ICT trade shows in the world.
