We were asked to help fly a French women’s basketball team to the Czech Republic at short notice.
Flying a French women’s basketball team to the Czech Republic
In January 2022, the manager of a French women’s basketball team asked us to arrange a charter to a European competition fixture in the Czech Republic. After originally booking seats on a scheduled flight that was cancelled by the airline, the client wanted a flexible and reliable alternative to ensure the team made it to the game in time.
Our Solution
Route: Bourges > Brno > Bourges
Aircraft: Saab 340
With a limited budget and only three days until the flight needed to depart, we worked around the clock to find a cost-effective solution. Within a day of receiving the request, our expert team had sourced a Saab 340 that could accommodate the 20 passengers and was available at short notice for a good price. The flight ran smoothly and the team arrived in Brno in time to play their match.
