Opus Aviation Revolutionizes Private Travel
Right-sizing private jet charter service creates a new class of travel
Private jets were once associated with extravagance, luxury and wealth, but Opus Aviation is breaking down this stereotype by economizing the private jet charter business model.
Opus Aviation owns and operates a versatile fleet of cost-effective private jets that are ideally suited for Alberta and BC travelers, but the real game-changer is the company's 'very light jets' - Cessna Citation Mustangs. They are known as 'entry level jets' because of their size and price, which is substantially lower than mid-sized business jets.
"The Mustang is revolutionizing the private jet charter business," said Darryl Saunders, Director of Sales and Marketing for Opus Aviation. "The Mustang is cost-effective and extremely efficient, making it ideal for short-haul flights and for landing on airstrips that are inaccessible by commercial airlines."
Businesses and particularly Western Canada's natural resources sector, spends millions of dollars on logistically challenging, time-consuming and expensive travel options to move employees to and from remote project sites and client meetings. Opus Aviation eliminates these obstacles by offering a service that caters directly to that market.
"Opus Aviation is also introducing private travel options to leisure travelers, as an alternative to commercial business class or first class," said Claire Newell, President of Jubilee Travel, who offers Opus Aviation travel packages to her customers. "Waiting in airports and going through security can be time-consuming and unenjoyable, but Opus Aviation puts the fun back into flying."
A subsidiary of The Ledcor Group of Companies, Opus Aviation is strategically located in Vancouver and Edmonton, and also serves the Calgary market. In addition to two Cessna Citation Mustangs, the company also owns and operates a Dassault Falcon 50EX, capable of intercontinental flights for nine passengers, and a Gulfstream G100 that carries up to seven passengers and can easily complete non-stop flights across the continent.
