“Focusing on environmental performance, versus typical key sales factors like speed and range, our team will be an independent conduit between prospective client and OEM or pre-owned aircraft brokerage,” said Gabriella, who has been working hard on this agency model since the first lockdown in March.
“We have built up an extensive network of HNWIs over two decades in business aviation charter and sales. Many have become increasingly environmentally conscious and are determined to prioritise sustainability in any future decisions on aircraft ownership, fractional or charter programmes.”
“We believe the time is now for the traditional aircraft sales model to adapt to new priorities and to reset the industry sales agenda. Environmental performance is fast positioning to be high on the list in future decision-making for large corporations and industry. This was the catalyst for ConnectSkies,” she adds.
ConnectSkies is looking forward to sharing news in the New Year regarding the creation of the first sustainable centre of excellence in London. It is also currently in discussion with Hammersmith & Fulham Council’s education team on ways to establish interaction and engagement on important issues around environmental change.
Aviation has a window of opportunity to demonstrate its commitment to the environment and become the friend, not foe to the next generation of environmentally conscious individuals. “We can’t wait to play a part in helping make London one of the leading cities to embrace urban mobility and sustainability,” added Gabriella.
