Embraer delivered first Phenom 300 to Prime Fraction Club in July
Company due to deliver a Phenom 100 to PFC later this month
Embraer delivered Prime Fraction Club’s (PFC) first
Phenom 300 light jet in July, to the leadership of the company, together with
the three owners sharing the aircraft. PFC also has a Phenom 100 scheduled for
delivery later this month.
Under PFC’s system, individuals make monthly
payments, to share an aircraft with others; then when they use it, appropriate
travel expenses are paid. This convenient shared mode means that the owner
(PFC) handles the aircraft and participating members can schedule flights for personal
or business use, with confidence in the quality of the service and the
aircraft.
“Embraer’s full portfolio
of executive jets is designed to meet a broad range of customer needs, whether
for personal or business purposes,” said
Breno Corrêa, vice president, Marketing
and Sales, Latin America, Embraer Executive
Jets. “We feel that our proven commitment
to customer preferences fits well with Prime Fraction Club’s innovative
business model for managing means of transportation needs on a shared basis.”
PFC is analysing other aircraft from Embraer’s family
of executive jets while prospecting fractional owners for all of the company’s
business aircraft. Prime is one of the first companies to implement this
business model in Brazil
and is the first to receive an Embraer aircraft.
“Our clientele require
quality, comfort, convenience and often globalised service,” said Walterson Caravajal, president of Prime Fraction
Club. “We of Prime Fraction Club have
come to Embraer for equipment for just
this reason.”
