Linear Air Announces Private Air Service at Airline Prices for Boston-Newark Travelers

Posted on: Wednesday, 1 February 2006, 12:00 CST

Linear Air, a premier air-taxi service that is transforming the private air travel industry, today announced private air luxury and convenience between the Boston and Newark areas at just $598 round-trip, a price equal to the major Boston-Newark shuttle airline. This announcement follows reports earlier this week that Boston-Newark airline shuttle flights are among the worst in on-time performance, and that customers are demanding better alternatives.

"We are proud to offer Boston-Newark travelers the entire private air charter experience for the cost of an airline seat," said William Herp, CEO and president of Linear Air. "Our service translates to less time spent at the airport and more time spent with clients and associates." Lionel Andre of Seibel Systems Inc. and a Linear Air customer concurs: "It's super convenient, and it's really first-class treatment."

Linear Air customers enjoy free planeside valet parking, private terminals, on board refreshments, and a user friendly online reservation system backed up by personalized telephone concierge service. With no lines and no crowds, passengers arrive just 30 minutes before their scheduled departure time. Most importantly, business travelers get to their destination on time, something that has become increasingly difficult for the airlines operating from huge international airports.

Linear Air offers daily service Monday through Thursday from the private terminal at Hanscom Airport in Bedford, Mass., 10 miles northwest of Boston Logan, and arrives at the private terminal at Teterboro Airport in Teterboro, New Jersey, just 5 miles north of Newark International and an ideal airport for New York City as well. Flights depart at 8:00 a.m. and return at 5:00 p.m.
