Flexjet and PrivateFly saw increasing September demand in Europe during what traditionally marks a seasonal slowdown for the respective fractional operator and on-demand charter provider, both of which are owned by Directional Aviation. At Flexjet, an already busy summer season was followed by the operations of 53 percent more flights in September than August and rapidly rising October bookings. Likewise, PrivateFly has continued to see bookings and inquiries continue “very strongly” in September.
