Four Seasons Expands 2019 Private Jet Tour Itineraries; Offers Dedicated Latin America Trip

By Doug Gollan, November 16, 2017

Private jet tours enable you to explore multiple destinations without the hassles of transiting multiple commercial airports and are significantly cheaper than chartering a jet

 

Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts announced three new tour by private jet itineraries set to take flight in 2019. According to a press release received by Private Jet Card Comparisons, newly added is Latin Escape, a 16-day adventure for those looking to explore Central and South America. Just over two weeks in duration, the new journey is shorter than the 24-day around-the-world journeys and takes travelers to Miami, Costa Rica, Buenos Aires, Bogotá and even includes an escape to the Galápagos Islands, all in the care of Four Seasons. Last week Abercrombie & Kent announced its 2018 round-the-world private jet trip.

The Four Seasons Private Jet uses a customized Boeing 757 with luxury seats that convert to flat beds in a 2×2 first-class style configuration. While you travel with a group, guests can opt into a wide range of experiences in each destination and tailor their trip to their interests. The dedicated team on each trip takes care of everything, including all air travel, ground transportation, planned excursions, all meals and beverages and accommodations at Four Seasons hotels and resorts.  In case you were wondering while visiting the remote Galápagos Islands during the Latin Escape itinerary, guests will stay at alternative high-end accommodations since the group doesn’t have a property there.

 

“Each year, we expand our private jet offerings, pushing the boundaries of curated travel and bringing together like-minded adventurers with a desire to explore the world. Our new itinerary offering, Latin Escape, was devised in response to increased interest in the Four Seasons Private Jet program by a wide range of travelers, some of whom are looking for a shorter travel experience while still in the comfort and care of Four Seasons.  Our tailor-made itineraries highlight the unique character of each destination, creating truly personalized and exclusive experiences alongside the comforts of legendary Four Seasons service,” says J. Allen Smith, President and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts in the release.

 

Additionally, two of the most popular Four Seasons itineraries will be featured in 2019. Timeless Encounters is a 24-day exploration of lively city centers and remote islands, including a day trip to the Taj Mahal. International Intrigue, a journey across nine diverse destinations, celebrates the magic of culturally-rich cities such as Kyoto and St. Petersburg set in contrast to the Serengeti. Both journeys have sold out previously.

 

Four Seasons recently announced it is partnering with NetJets to offer custom vacations for NetJets’ fractional owners and jet card customers.
