Customers of Flexjet will get VIP access to top yacht shows and preferred terms with Ferretti Group via a new partnership.
Flexjet fractional owners and jet card customers will gain VIP access to global boat shows, receive private tours of the Ferretti Group’s Riva shipyard, and have preferential terms on Riva Brand Experience line products and accessories as part of a new air and sea partnership.
The agreement was signed at the Venice Boat Show, where the Ferretti Group presented 10 models.
Included were world premiers of Custom Line Navetta 38 and Pershing GTX 80.
Ferretti Group customers will have select access to Flexjet’s fleet of over 300 private jets and helicopters.
The yacht company’s customers will also have access to Flexjet’s private terminals in Teterboro, the world’s busiest private jet airport, Naples, Florida, and Van Nuys, California.
“People who love cruising on Ferretti Group yachts expect standards of absolute excellence when they fly, too, which is why I’m so pleased to associate our name with Flexjet, a partner that shares our same passion and desire to offer customers an increasingly rewarding experience,” Alberto Galassi, Ferretti Group CEO, said.
Flexjet Chairman Kenn Ricci added, “This exciting partnership takes the decades-long expertise and luxury brand power from leaders in two complementary sectors and combines them to present today’s UHNWI audience with exclusive and unique advantages.”
Ricci noted, “I have been a huge admirer of Ferretti Group’s philosophy for many years, and we share a deep understanding of what it takes to deliver a truly exceptional luxury experience. I’m excited to see how this significant strategic alliance can lift our offerings to greater heights of excellence.”
The collaboration will also involve a shared presence at international boat shows and other high-profile events and the joint curation of bespoke private client experiences such as Ferretti Group’s Private Preview in Monaco and Flexjet’s primary VIP viewing experience at the historic Palio di Siena.
The agreement includes an intent to create a Riva-inspired interior for one of the private jet company’s flagship Gulfstream G650 aircraft.
