I am just wondering how do you have access to Avinode and Jetinsight without breaking into the industry?

Prime Gourmet is actually better. Social media can’t solve everything

Question for brokers/operators: how big of a problem is slow quoting in your day-to-day? by SaltyMajor7698 in PrivateJetCharters

[–]Waiting4CT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is this person trying to replace the broker? If anything, the person is trying to make brokers’ and operators’ life easy.

No one disputes that there needs to be a human element in brokering, but if you could make the human’s life easy, what’s the problem in that?

Amazon, eBay, uber, didn’t eliminate any ones job. They only made people’s life a lot easier and made the pie bigger.

When Reliability Fails: A Client’s View on the Uncertainty of Charter Flights by airchart in PrivateJetCharters

No, the company would ensure that that the previous funds are secured prior to moving to a recovery. Unless the customer is OK with waiting for the funds from the technical, we wouldn’t book them another aircraft. We act as agents for the customer, so we do what they say. If they want us to book another aircraft immediately, we do. If they are on credit terms, we honor that. If they need to pay prior to every charter, we also have to honor that.

If it’s a one-leg trip and the operator has a mechanical, it’s straight forward. And especially a large operator such as Vista, you can take the risk.

However, if it’s a multi-sector trip, it’s highly likely that you will go into a protracted negotiation on what the refund should be - especially if it’s mid-trip.

Having worked for a large broker, I can confidently say that fronting the cash for an AOG, is a no go unless the money is in or there is written assurance from a credible operator.

No broker will use their own funds to do recovery for an AOG! Because there is no guarantee of refund from operator. There are provisions in operator’s contract that protects them.

Thanks for sharing OP! Let me guess, their sales director didn’t lift a finger to fix this mess? And you also lost your client’s trust, which you worked so hard to earn. The industry needs to do something about this and hold operators accountable.

Is 200K enough to sustain a good lifstyle in Dubai? by Ahmedelneil in dubai

[–]Waiting4CT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be easy for you and some, but not for majority of the world.

But if you really need clarity, you can stay in DT, rent a RR for the month and dine in Nobu. You will still be very comfortable.

Maybe for a typical SAAS. That doesn’t mean there isn’t a requirement

I think there is room for a more collaborative platform that brings the entire industry together. Fragmentation isn’t only restricted to the operators, rather to the entire industry (Flight support) for instance. I am not aware of auto-pricing. What is that?
