Virgin Charter (www.virgincharter.com), a full service online booking tool, has recently announced the first ever GDS solution for private jet charter.

Scott Duffy, founder and CEO, Virgin Charter said the company is launching its GDS solution to meet the unprecedented increase in demand for private charter flights as more businesses embrace private air travel as a productivity tool.

"Charter travel gives business travelers the ability to have meetings in multiple cities in a short period of time, conduct business en route, and enables them to get into more cities and through airports quickly. Companies also find cost-efficiencies for large groups traveling together," said Duffy.

The advancement includes a real-time pricing engine for non-scheduled private aviation. Real-time pricing allows buyers to receive immediate quotes from multiple operators across the US. This new real-time pricing element in combination with users' ability to manage their entire booking online from end-to-end makes it easier than ever to book private air charter.
