NEW YORK,
June 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Marquis Jet(SM), the global leader in
private jet cards, was recognized as the "Best of the Best" by Robb Report in
its 19th annual "Best of the Best" issue. Marquis Jet provides access to the
world-renowned NetJets(R) fleet, 25 hours at a time. The Marquis Jet Card
program was named "Best Flight-Card Program: Fractional," based on combining
the simplicity and low financial risk of a jet card with many of the
advantages of NetJets fractional ownership program and additional attractive
benefits provided by Marquis Jet's alliance partners.
As reported in Robb Report, "Marquis Jet founder and CEO Kenny Dichter
provides a succinct reason why Marquis Jet once again is appearing in Best of
the Best: 'Choosing your aviation partner is like choosing your doctor: You
consider trust, service, and safety.' Certainly the Marquis Jet program with
the unparalleled resources of NetJets meets expectations in all three areas."
Dichter attributes Marquis Jet's ongoing success to their never-ending
dedication to their clients: "Our primary product is the owner experience."
He continues, "We don't operate like we have well over 3,000+ owners. Rather,
we think of ourselves as having one owner to whom we give scrupulous attention
-- and then we do that 3,000+ times."
In this year's "Best of the Best" issue, Robb Report cites a number of
exciting and exclusive Marquis Jet Card Owner benefits, including:
-- Access to nine jet types from the industry-leading NetJets fleet;
-- Combination Cards that provide flight time in two different NetJets
Aircraft; and
-- Special access to top Sotheby's events and a $3,000 certificate towards
the purchase of Judith Ripka jewelry.
"Winning Robb Report 'Best of the Best' is an honor we have been fortunate
to earn for many years consecutively," said Ken Austin, executive vice
president. "Only NetJets has the global infrastructure to fly you virtually
anywhere you want, anytime you want. And only the Marquis Jet Card gives you
access to NetJets. We will continue to work day and night to remain the clear
choice in our space."
The Marquis Jet fleet is provided by NetJets through an exclusive alliance
between the two companies. NetJets, a Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRKa)
company, is the worldwide leader in fractional jet ownership. NetJets manages
the world's largest and most diversified fleet of more than 670-plus aircraft,
staffs 3,000 highly trained and experienced pilots and provides the world's
safest and most secure private aviation travel solutions. NetJets was also
recognized by Robb Report as the 2007 "Best of the Best" in Fractional
Ownership Programs. In 2000, NetJets' success prompted Robb Report to create
a brand new category for fractional aircraft in its annual Best of the Best
issue. NetJets has appeared in the Best of the Best issue ever since.
