Private charter flights are now available from Seawings, the
premium seaplane operator based in Dubai, with the launch of its new Air Taxi
service offering flights from central business and leisure locations
throughout the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar.
Seaplanes can provide direct access to city center locations thanks to the planes’ ability to land on water. With this unique capability, Seawings
has expanded their network of destinations to now include such locations as Abu Dhabi Corniche or Dubai Creek. Now air passengers can experience the
convenience and luxury of their own seaplane offered through the private
chartered flights with the Air Taxi service.
Routes for the Air Taxis can be customized, with flyers choosing
from 26 landing destinations including regional airports and useful city
locations. All seaplanes offer room for nine passengers and preplanned services
once the flyer lands for complete luxury and no-stop service. Those who reserve
the chartered flights can depart any time of the day, giving passengers unforgettable
views from oversize viewing windows.
“The vision behind Air Taxi is to make private travel faster
and more convenient for both business and leisure travelers,” Seawings CEO Stuart
Wheeler said. “By touching down in the heart of a city, the service
saves passengers considerable time versus business class travel from major
airports.”
Flyers can save time and possible travel delays with the featured
ground services offered with each flight. In addition, the prime locations
where the Air Taxis can land greatly limits the need for more land transfers.
“We’ve pioneered a network of landing locations across the
Middle East region,” Wheeler said. “Our fleet of seaplanes can now provide a dedicated aerial
taxi service that connects the whole Arabian Peninsula.”
