Crystal Luxury Air is scheduled to take flight in March 2016 with a growing fleet including a Boeing 777-200LR, Boeing 787 Dreamliner, Airbus ACJ319 jet and Bombardier Global Express XRS. The new planes will service private charters and transport guests to their Crystal destinations for ocean, river or yacht voyages from any point in the United States to the Mediterranean, Indian Ocean and the Pacific.
Recognized in the private jet industry as the epitome of luxury and comfort, the Bombardier Global Express XRS will feature a spacious two-cabin configuration accommodating up to 13 guests, four executive wide club seats with foldout tables, a four-place conference space opposite a single-seat workstation and cabinet, laptop imagery on cabin monitors, surround sound, high-temperature oven and an aft entertainment cabin with a 31.5-inch LCD.
The ACJ319 jet will accommodate just 30 travelers in the utmost luxury, including 16 lay-flat seats, and beginning summer 2016 it will transport guests to their desired Crystal destination, including to ocean, river and yacht voyages.
“With our vast choice of aircraft, we are confident Crystal Luxury Air will deliver the fast and hassle-free requirements our guests and discerning travelers have been wanting with global air travel,” said Edie Rodriguez, CEO and president, Crystal Cruises.
