choose LunaJets as their private jet charter of choice
The banking and finance industry moves at speed, and at LunaJets we understand the fast-paced nature of this sector and the urgent and critical demands made on executives working in this domain. At LunaJets, we know that the benefits of business aviation really comes into its own for this sector, as clients can reap all the benefits of convenience, speed and discretion.

This is particularly because commercial aviation is becoming more complex and time-consuming, due to global staff shortages across cabin crew teams and baggage handlers.
Flying with commercial airlines is no longer as speedy and efficient as it once was, even in business class, which is why more and more firms within the banking sector are turning to private aviation to meet their travel needs.
LunaJets is trusted by a large number of private banking institutions and their chief executives, who recognise that chartering a private jet may not be as costly as they think. We open our customers’ eyes to the wide range of time-saving benefits that can be gained by private jet hire.
Seven key benefits of business aviation for the banking sector:
On-demand: charter a private plane within two hours
Speed: enjoy a quick check-in and passage through security
Convenience: private vehicle transfer to private airport terminal, as standard
Confidentiality: host meetings and discussions on your private plane - even on the runway; use the luxurious cabin as a confidential meeting space
Comfort: the luxurious cabins of a private jet ensure executives remain refreshed and 'stress free'
Your schedule: the pilot and crew are on your timetable; aircraft will wait if meetings run over or you need to divert to a new destination
Hygiene: cabins are refreshed with quality air, reducing the risk of the disruption of the Covid-19 virus, or flu and colds
Private jet travel is transport of choice for banking institutions and their clients
Private jet travel is often the transport of choice for the finance industry, whose corporate executives frequently need to quickly travel across the globe for negotiations and high-level client meetings.
We also understand the need for banking institutions to accommodate their UHNWI and HNWI clients, and to fly in key customers and their families. Providing the use of a private jet can be an added touch that delivers extra value customer service to your key clients - at a rate that is more cost-effective than you may think.
The premier private aviation partner for the financial sector
It is for these reasons - speed, convenience and customer service - why it is crucial that banking and financial institutions team up with a reliable private jet partner. Being headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, LunaJets offers quick and easy local access to financial hubs such as Zurich and London, as well as fast and luxurious international and transatlantic flights, quickly and easily.
LunaJets’ Geneva HQ quickly links to other financial hubs
As a Swiss company, and with headquarters in Geneva, LunaJets is the go-to corporate aviation partner of choice for many of the private banking institutions based in the city, in what is one of Europe’s leading financial hubs. We quickly transport executives to other financial hubs of London, Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Luxembourg and Zurich.
