Sentient Jet Recognized as "Best of the Best" by Luxury Lifestyle Authority
for Fifth Consecutive Year
WEYMOUTH, Mass. - May 29, 2007 - Sentient Jet, the leading provider of private jet membership and one of the country's fastest-growing private jet companies, was recognized for the fifth consecutive year in Robb Report's annual "Best of the Best" report, which hit newsstands May 22. The Sentient Jet Membership Program was named "Best Flight-Card Program: Charter," based on its continued success in delivering a world-class private air experience, encompassing everything from program flexibility to safety standards.
In this year's "Best of the Best," Robb Report recognizes Sentient's recent merger with JetDirect, one of the country's largest full-service private jet operations, proclaiming that Sentient, "the jet-card pioneer," now has "more control over two important aspects of its operation: safety and service."
The added capabilities of the combined companies further enhance the operating platform of the Sentient Membership Program, such as providing access to a vastly expanded fleet of more than 110 aircraft managed across the companies. With deep industry experience, an industry-leading safety program and a passion for service excellence, Sentient Jet Membership presents a compelling alternative to the fractional ownership model, with the operational base required to support continued rapid expansion.
"Recognition from Robb Report is an honor and we believe that it is a testament to our dedication to providing exceptional service to our Members," said Steven Hankin, CEO of Sentient Jet. "With our Membership tripling over the last two years, it is clear that our flexibility and commitment to service are what the marketplace desires. Supporting our tremendous expansion, Sentient has the infrastructure and operational capabilities for sustained growth and we continue to focus our talents and strengths on exceeding our Members' expectations."
While service and industry-leading performance remain top goals for Sentient, safety is the first priority for each flight. Robb Report notes the creation of the independent Safety Advisory Board in 2005, which reviews all industry incidents and provides Sentient relevant information to continue improving upon an already admirable safety record.
