When we heard that Flexjet was coming out with a new app, we went to see what we could find about their existing ones. Well, we thought we had struck gold, but today we were told by a spokesperson, “The video you found on YouTube was just a concept proposed a few years ago, but it was not executed.” She added, “We do have an app our Owners can use, but we removed it from the app store in anticipation of the new app launch.”
So what is in store for the new app? First of all, it will be available for fractional, lease and jet card customers of Flexjet.
Some of the highlights according to Flexjet include:
