    Switch to: enEN pt-brPortuguês (PT) esEspañol (ES)

    Many e-mail exchanges, bureaucracy and, in some cases, a headache: this can summarize the process of obtaining a quote for an air taxi and the hiring of these services in some traditional channels. But the worst of it is that, almost always, it is not just that. In addition to the wear and tear with so many comings and goings of the process, in certain cases, there is a lack of price transparency and, above all, information about the service provided.

    And all of this can transform the process into an unpleasant and tiring experience, as well as cause concern at a time when what you need most is agility and tranquility. But now, let’s show you how easy – and practical – it is to request an online air taxi quote, receive a proposal, and pay in less than an hour.

    Benefits

    With Flapper, renting a jet or helicopter is just as easy as ordering a car on a mobile app. Due to its own quotation system and an inventory of 450+ airplanes approved for air taxi service, you can get a quote for your flight not just very quickly, but very practically.

    One of the main advantages of the system is transparency. After sending the quote, it is possible to know the estimated cost of the flight by route or aircraft. The user can check the photos and details of the plane or helicopter he plans to hire, such as amenities (air conditioning, DVD, bathroom, among others), flight permissions, and the validity of the air taxi certification (learn more in the topic below).

    Another advantage of Flapper’s reservation technology is the wide range of options which are not limited to companies in only one region. The platform allows aircraft to be rented throughout Latin America – and, to a lesser extent, in the United States and Europe.

    6 simple steps to hire an air taxi

    Let’s imagine that you are looking for a flight between São Paulo and Goiânia. Both through the mobile app and the website, the process is done in just six steps: quotation, choice of aircraft, details of the aircraft, submission of quotation, receipt of the proposal and, finally, confirmation and digital signature of the contract.

    Below, we will detail each step for you to make sure it is easy – and fast – to obtain an air taxi quote.

    1- Air taxi quote

    In the first part, you choose a combination of places in the city of origin and destination. In the case of the São Paulo to Goiânia section, the system returns numerous combinations of routes, connecting pairs of airports or helipads, or both!

    When selecting a specific aerodrome, you will find the aircraft options (fixed or rotary wing), in addition to the possibility of searching for the lowest price. Our final choice was a flight departing from Congonhas Airport (CGH), in São Paulo, and arriving at Goiânia Airport (GYN).

    2 – Choice of aircraft

    Once the starting point and the arrival point are defined, it is time to choose the aircraft. In this part of the quote, you can choose a jet, turboprop, or helicopter. It is important to note that the aircraft are grouped by prefix: the customer looking for a King Air 200 option, for example, can choose according to the type of interior, amenities, or airworthiness and safety certificates.

    3 – Aircraft details

    When choosing a King Air 200, you can see all the details of the aircraft: from certification of the aircraft at ANAC, FAA, or another local civil aviation agency to the amenities offered: air conditioning, seats with adjustments, reading lights, and bathroom.

    The customer also has access to photos of the interior and exterior of the chartered aircraft.

    4 – Sending the quotation

    At this stage of the process, after sending the quotation, Flapper’s service responds in a few minutes with confirmation of the availability of the aircraft and chosen segment, as well as the price of the operation.

    More sophisticated orders, including international flights or those involving large commercial aircraft, can take up to 24 hours to be confirmed.

    5 – Receiving the proposal

    In the fifth step, you receive a detailed proposal through a link sent by the Flapper team, which includes a proposal with the final price and the availability of each aircraft. It is important to note that the system works with multiple currencies. Below, see the example for the Lima – Bogotá route.

    6 – Confirmation and digital signature of the contract

    At this stage, the customer signs the digital charter contract. At Flapper, payment options include bank transfer and EBTA corporate virtual card, as well as machine transactions.

    Conclusions

    Getting an air taxi quote online can be easier than you think. The process is summarized in six brief steps: quotation, choice of aircraft, details of the aircraft, submission of quotation, receipt of proposal, and confirmation and digital signature of the contract.

    Considered a new trend in the process of contracting air taxi services, the online quote provides, in a transparent way and in advance, the estimated value of the flight. By computer or by cell phone, through the Flapper platform, you have access to detailed details of the aircraft (such as registration with ANAC), as well as images and amenities.
