Fly Private to the Jazz Aspen Labor Day Festival

Monday, November 21st, 2011

Aspen-Jazz1

On Labor Day weekend every year, a special three-day event takes place in Aspen, Colorado. The Jazz Aspen Labor Day Festival, like many Aspen events, attracts the elite, the high-class, and the jet set from around the world. This event is one which is highly anticipated by local jet setters and distant travelers alike, all of whom relish the mix of the best of Aspen – the laid back atmosphere, during which you wear your jeans and cowboy boots, and enjoy the mountains, sunshine, and the great outdoors – with the best luxuries that being a jet setter has to offer – social activities, fantastic music, VIP service and attention, and exquisite food.

The festival takes place in the open air at Snowmass Town Park, with a stunning view of the Elk Mountain Range in the background. Starting Friday evening and continuing through Sunday, a total of 11 shows will be put on by various popular, R&B, rock, funk, blues, world, and soul music artists. Friday’s line-up consists of Thievery Corporation, Paper Diamond, and Girl Talk. On Saturday Ryan Bingham and the Dead Horses, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Nit Grit, and Steely Dan will perform. And Sunday will feature Fitz and the Tantrums, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Porter Robinson, and the Zac Brown Band. For directions to the festival site, visit Jazzaspensnowmass.org here.

The website only gets you to the festival from nearby. But if you need a flight into town, the best option is to charter a private jet. Located right here in Aspen, we at evoJets Charter have the perfect opportunity to provide you with the best possibly situated transportation and travel assistance for your visit. We can also help you select the right private charter jet for your travel needs. For smaller parties of 4 to 7 passengers, a light jet would be perfect. Many private travelers in the Aspen area have a preference for the Hawker 400XP, Learjet 35A, or even the Pilatus PC-12 turboprop. For larger parties of 8 to 10, a Gulfstream G400, Challenger 601, or Challenger 300 would be well-suited.

As you’ve surely noticed, the Jazz Aspen Labor Day Festival is a big deal, and it’s not just any old jazz festival. It is being held by Jazz Aspen Snowmass (JAS), a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1991 and now entering its 20th anniversary season. According to their site, “The mission of JAS is to present and preserve Jazz, American, and popular music through world-class festivals, performances, and education programs.” Here at evoJets, we have been fans and loyal followers of Jazz Aspen for many years. We are big supporters of their mission and have not only seen it “in action” all along, but have also witnessed the affects that it has on students and young aspiring musicians.

JAS has been recognized again and again for its matchless mix of world-class music and the beauty of its location in scenic Aspen. Its flawless warmth and welcome for both artist and audiences is also widely celebrated – the corporate and VIP tent programs are unrivaled in all live music events across the world.

Charter a Flight for your Child’s Graduation

Monday, November 21st, 2011

Spring graduation is an exciting, busy time for students and their families. When your son or daughter is about to graduate, whether from college, trade school, or anywhere else, there are a lot of plans to make – where to stay, how to celebrate, what to wear, what gifts to give, and most importantly, how to get there. Many busy families only have a few short days to visit their graduate and celebrate this momentous occasion with them. You certainly don’t want to spend the majority of that time waiting in long lines at a crowded commercial airport.

So how can you avoid the woes of commercial flight and make the most of your limited visiting time with your graduate? One excellent option is to charter a luxurious private flight through a private jet charter company. Flying private allows you to skip the long lines, security hassle, luggage issues, and other problems and enjoy your trip to the fullest. You will save time by flying into and out of smaller airports closer to your origination or destination, and you will discover the convenience, privacy, luxurious comfort, and outstanding customer service which come with private jet travel. Most importantly, the plane can depart and arrive when and where it is most convenient for you, and you can select an aircraft that will be able to make the flight in one hop, with no stops or layovers.

If you want the best selection of private aircraft for your trip, book your flight with evoJets Charter. We have access to thousands of premium, safety-rated aircraft across the country, and our dedicated client relationship managers will help you select the best jet for your unique travel plans.

Private Jet to the Cannes !

Monday, November 21st, 2011

The Cannes Film Festival, easily called the most prestigious film festival in the world, is a thrilling private event which takes place each year in the city of Cannes, France. The festival was begun on the initiative of Jean Zay, France’s Minister for Education and Fine Arts in those early years, who wanted to establish an international cultural event in France to rival the Venice Film Festival. Now every May, visitors from around the globe come to see the stars, watch the awards, and experience the magic of the international cinema world.

Film makers, stars, and celebrities alike know how best to travel to Cannes for the festival – by private jet. Film buffs and fans can partake of this luxurious travel as well by booking a private charter jet to France for 2012’s events. One particularly popular jet which can easily transport passengers from anywhere across the planet is the Gulfstream G550. When the celebrities arrive next May, they will be fresh from traveling aboard these stylish and comfortable aircraft.

The Gulfstream G550 is a longer range upgrade of the G500. The aircraft has nearly the same cabin as its predecessor, typically seating 8 passengers, with the same wide variety of possible configurations for the commodious, relaxing environment within. Twelve different floor plan layouts can include up to four distinct living areas, three temperature zones, club seating, lengthy divans, and a dining/conference area, providing travelers with plenty of space in which to move and work.

Handy technological features aboard the G550 may include satellite communications, a wireless local area network, fax machine, printer, and on some aircraft, Gulfstream’s Broad Band Multi Link (BBML). The G550 cabin also has an entertainment system with the Airshow passenger information system, DVD players, a CD player, and LCD monitors. Also standard aboard the aircraft are a fully-equipped galley, a luxurious private lavatory, and 14 large oval windows for maximum allowance of refreshing sunlight.

Both celebrities and their ambitious fans will equally enjoy arriving in Cannes in such style for next year’s festival. Each year is better than before, and the upcoming events are sure to thrill and amaze. Be on the lookout for more news about featured films and hosts for each of the programs at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival.

There are only three weeks left before the upcoming Aspen Food & Wine Festival. This year’s event promises to be filled with scrumptious delicacies and tantalizing flavors in every form you can think of. When Food & Wine magazine’s select guests – consumers, members of the restaurant industry, and press – arrive in Aspen, they will no doubt be dazzled by the myriad of wine tastings and cooking demonstrations which make this celebrated three-day soirée a live experience of the magazine itself.

The annual Food & Wine Classic grows ever nearer, and with it the promise of demonstrations and seminars by some of the world’s most storied winemakers, renowned chefs, and culinary virtuosos, including the likes of those such as Gail Simmons, Mario Batali, José Andrés, Joshua Wesson, and Jacques Pépin. Aspen’s downtown district will soon come alive with guests sampling the world’s finest flavors at five consumer Grand Tastings and two Private Trade Grand Tastings under Food & Wine’s Grand Tasting Pavilion. And guests will have no need for constant worry about restricting their underage relations as the festival has a no-one-under-21 policy, and the kids will simply have to stay at home for this one.

The cabin’s design is wide and roomy, being one of the first produced with “walk-around” space. The aircraft has a fully enclosed lavatory and 115 cubic feet of luggage space. It is notable for having a rather quiet cabin with low vibration levels. The Challenger 600 was designed for long range, making it an excellent selection for your last minute – but no less luxuriant – flight to this year’s Aspen Food & Wine Classic.
