VistaJet adds WeChat sales capability

VistaJet, the Malta based global aircraft charter specialist, has launched a new service that allows clients to book flights using WeChat.

Wechat is an integrated Chinese instant messaging and social network platform that is used by over 600 million people.

VistaJet’s client will now be able to book flights, or buy a block of hours, using WeChat.

“For VistaJet, being global means not only flying our customers anywhere they wish to go to, but also creating a service dedicated to regional cultural demands.” said Thomas Flohr, founder & chairman, VistaJet. “Our Chinese consumers don’t tend to use email as a primary communication tool, and instead pointed us to the incredible popularity of WeChat. Launching a WeChat service is a huge opportunity to allow people to talk to our team – anytime, anywhere – and enable us to provide Chinese customers with the best experience in the industry.
