We had the privilege of organising a remarkable charter for a professional European football club, taking them on an international tour from Europe to Australia with a stopover in Sri Lanka aboard the luxurious B767-300ER.

The journey began with a 15-hour flight to Sri Lanka, a very short stop for a refuel and crew change. This was followed by an 11-hour trip to Australia, meticulously planned to ensure upmost comfort and efficiency. Olly, from our commercial charter team, accompanied the flights to oversee every detail of this complex journey, ensuring exceptional service and smooth operations for the team. From logistics coordination to handling any last-minute changes, Olly’s dedication and expertise played a crucial role in delivering a seamless travel experience for the football club.

The B767-300ER, an executive passenger jet, proved to be the perfect solution for the football club’s long-haul travel requirements. Featuring 96 leather, lie-flat seats with a generous seat pitch of 73 inches, the aircraft is tailored for VIP group travel, offering maximum comfort for passengers. Additionally, the aircraft includes a private area with a convertible leather couch into a comfortable bed, providing further relaxation options. With amenities such as power points and onboard chat and entertainment functions, passengers can stay connected and entertained throughout the flight.

This successful project showcases our proficiency in managing intricate travel itineraries for high-profile clients. Through collaboration with our trusted partners, we ensure the selection of the most suitable aircraft for our client’s specific needs. In this instance, we ensured that the football club’s journey was not only comfortable, but also luxurious and enjoyable.

Olly, Senior Charter Broker who was in charge of managing this charter shared:

“Being able to work with the top sports teams around the world is a real privilege, and having the opportunity to arrange this trip and continue to build our relationship with the client was thoroughly enjoyable. It was imperative that a flight of this magnitude required an operator and aircraft of the same calibre, and by combining both ensured that the trip ran smoothly from the moment we set off to arriving back on home soil.”
