US FLIGHTNET offers many advantages to users. AIRNET's service is not intended to compete with the commercial airlines or other travel options. But rather, to supplement the established travel options with a very flexible system which works best with short lead times rather than the long advance bookings required to get significant discounts. US FLIGHTNET offers business travellers, general public and specialized shippers another option when others are not available. The major benefits include:
- DIRECT TRAVEL to thousands of airports rather than the hundreds served by the airlines- ECONOMIC COST depending on the type of aircraft and flight arrangements
- CONVENIENT TIMES at less congested airports
- PERSONALIZED SERVICE for passengers and those requiring specialized handling
- LAST OPTION when flights are cancelled or fullHere are some real examples of what US FLIGHTNET has actually done to solve some travel problems:
- An airline flight was cancelled which stranded a member. US FLIGHTNET received the member's last minute plea for help and arranged a charter flight to pick him up. He made his meeting on time.
- An elderly couple needed to travel to a small town without commercial service. US FLIGHTNET located a plane that took them directly to the local airport at the small town. They avoided the difficulty of connecting flights at a major hub airport.
- A charity was conducting an auction which included a rare bottle of wine. US FLIGHTNET arranged to have it flown in without damage.
- A member realized that he had left important medications home while out of town. US FLIGHTNET arranged to have them delivered to him.
- Several kids were going to a summer camp about 8 hours by car from home. Several parents called and asked if any planes were going near the camp. Unfortunately, none were, but the parents decided to charter a plane and split the cost. The kids flew on the same plane and the parents each saved 16 hours in a car. They also knew that the kids wouldn't have to change planes in a major hub airport to get to the destination.
- A conference planner had a conference scheduled at a nice, but difficult to reach resort. USFLIGHTNET worked with the resort and conference planner to fly some attendees from gateway airports directly to the resort.
There are many more instances when the convenience and personalized service can make a problem into a pleasant experience. US FLIGHTNET has the flexibility to accomodate almost any travel request.
