A&K’s Private Jet Coming To Australia

Abercrombie & Kent (A&K), global leader in luxury travel, is proud to announce the arrival of its signature private Boeing 757-200ER jet, due to land in Sydney on Tuesday 22 January 2008, as part of the Nine World Wonders – Around the World by Private Jet itinerary.

Originating in Miami, Florida on Sunday 13 January, this exclusive journey is the epitome in luxury private travel. With only 50 passengers on a plane that can carry 186, guests are assured of room to move on this remarkable aircraft. Whether resting on the VIP extended recline cradle seats, complete with a 60 inch pitch, or relaxing in the comfortable club lounge and bar, the space is the first true sign of luxury on board.

Accompanied by two Tour Directors and crew, the staff has been selected from the highest ranks of A&K’s international group of travel professionals, guaranteeing expert guidance and a quality travel experience. Joint Tour Directors for this unique private jet journey are Jeremy Kerrison and Jan Moester. Jeremy, a Brit, has spent the last 15 years working as a travel guide, guidebook author and editor and translator of travel literature. An experienced private jet Tour Director, Jeremy brings a world of experience and understanding to this amazing travel experience.

Jan Moester was born in the Netherlands and by the age of 21 had visited every country in Europe whilst guiding American students. Jan followed his early passions and some years later became a professional guide. Jan was a Tour Manager on two of A&K’s private jet programs in 2006 so his knowledge, service, passion and experience are an asset to any tour.

The comprehensive 25 day itinerary takes in nine wonders of the world in the most luxurious fashion. Landmarks of world culture and history, the destinations include must-see highlights and hidden treasures including Peru’s Machu Picchu; Easter Island; Sydney, Australia; Angkor Wat in Cambodia; Myanmar; India; Oman; Jordan and Egypt; before touching down in New York. A copy of the full itinerary can be viewed at www.akprivatejet.com/9wonders. Guests enjoy only the finest accommodation and at least 2-3 days at each stop, guaranteeing a relaxed pace with time to truly experience the wonders of each unique destination.

This remarkable luxury travel itinerary gives guests Design Your Day options in every location and the opportunity to tailor activities to suit each individual interest. At a cost of US$77,750 per person/share basis (ex Miami) with a $7,750 single supplement, this program is far more than travel – it’s a unique and enriching journey.

Abercrombie & Kent’s Australasian Managing Director, Sujata Raman is delighted to welcome the A&K Private Jet to Australia. “Following on from the first visit of the private jet in 2007, A&K Australia is proud to again welcome the private jet guests in January 2008. With Design Your Day opportunities in Sydney including private access tours of Aboriginal Art collections at the Art Gallery of NSW; a Harbour Bridge walk; a trip to the stunning Blue Mountains; a seaplane visit to Palm Beach or wine tasting in the Hunter Valley, we are sure guests will appreciate all Australia has to offer. As world leaders in luxury travel, A&K’s private jet offers a holiday experience with a level of service rarely seen.
