OneSky Empowers Private Jet Travel at Substantial Savings This Holiday Season

31 December 2006

"Right now, there is still enough time to book your holiday private jet travel," says Justin Sullivan, VP of Sales at OneSky Jets. "Next week will be a different story, as private jet availability for 'peak travel days' tightens up. But, if you live in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale or Boca Raton, and want to travel north for the holidays, we can give you an almost unbelievable value."


This is the reverse benefit of OneSky Jets' new search system that aggregates hundreds of empty legs (empty legs are flights where jets are flying empty after having delivered a customer, or are on their way to pick up a customer).


"OneSky Jets estimates that over 40 percent of the private jets flying customers south for Christmas will return empty, providing significant opportunities for those living in the south who want to fly north for the holidays," explains Sullivan.


Following is a snapshot of available jets with "empty legs" through Dec. 31 that is suggestive of what may be available through OneSky Jets:


Origin Destination Aircraft Traditional Empty Leg Price Price ------ ----------- -------- ----------- --------- West Palm Beach, FL White Plains, NY Lear Jet 35 $15,671 $8,253 Ft. Lauderdale, FL Teterboro, NJ Beechjet 400A $13,954 $8,915 Boca Raton, FL Atlantic City, NJ Lear Jet 35 $14,361 $9,792 Burbank, CA West Palm Beach Challenger 601 $62,433 $35,561


"Rather than flying one way empty, it is in the interest of private jet providers to offer substantial discounts to attract travelers in an effort to monetize each leg," explains Greg Johnson, OneSky's CEO. "But as the market is fragmented, until now most empty legs have gone unused.


"OneSky's new search engine fills the vacuum as it empowers customers to instantly search, compare and price the inventory of empty legs in real time," says Johnson. "While we offer empty legs generated through our internal bookings, we also aggregate the supply from our 300+ operating partners, thereby providing our customers with access to hundreds of empty leg opportunities."


OneSky's searches of empty legs are in real time, but the snapshots in this press release are not a guarantee that these prices will be available when customers call. For current prices, travelers can browse to http://www.onesky.com/emptylegs or call 866-663-7591.

Through its revolutionary online booking system, customers can instantly search, compare and price flights anytime.
