The travel and aviation industries are currently in crisis mode as airlines and travellers come to terms with the new normal that requires us to stay at home in order to limit the spread of COVID 19 and keep one another safe. Could private jet travel be the solution to this problem for essential and unavoidable travel needs?
As the state and federal governments are looking at requirements to keep the aviation industry busy for the future, for now, it’s clear that regular flights, whether they’re regional, interstate or international, are temporarily cancelled. The pressure on airlines during this time is immense as they navigate how to hibernate and survive the current crisis.
During this period of uncertainty, many companies are turning to private jet travel in order to fill the gap as some travel is essential and unavoidable.
Freight and humanitarian flights, for example, are more critical than ever.
According to The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), National aviation authorities have also been asked to expedite matters relating to the expiration of personnel licenses, and coordination with national flight planning and advisory services.
At Adagold, our team is busier than usual as we help individuals and businesses to navigate these uncertain times. We also have COVID-19 medical, safety and operational protocols in place in order to accommodate the most sensitive of requirements.
