British Airways and CitationAir introduce ‘PrivateConnect’ service

British Airways (BA) and CitationAir have introduced a new private jet service exclusively for British Airways customers flying within North America and the Caribbean.
The 'PrivateConnect' service will give customers `pay-by-the-trip' access to a network of private aircraft operated by CitationAir and its parent, the Cessna Aircraft Company. An online registration and dedicated phone number allows BA customers to 'pay and go' with a credit card, avoiding the long-term commitment and up-front fees normally associated with private jet hire.

Furthermore, chauffeured transport will be on hand after clearing customs to drive customers between their British Airways flight and CitationAir private jet. BA customers can also take advantage of PrivateConnect to fly within North America, even if they haven't arrived on or are due to depart onto another flight.

Robert Boyle, Director of Strategy and Business Units, British Airways' said, "This is another innovative service from British Airways, further demonstrating our dedication to flying our customers in style.
