Five hotels is on a mission to redefine the whole hotel check–in experience. Instead of custom airport pickups and front desk greetings, you can now board their customised private jet that takes you straight to your hotel destination.
This is the idea behind Five Hotels & Resorts newly launched “FLY FIVE” private jet service, allowing guests to experience the lifestyle of FIVE hotels even before you enter the hotel lobby.
At the heart of this venture is a $80 million aircraft, that has been converted from a commercial ACJ TwoTwenty to a luxurious private jet, known as the 9H–FIVE. With over 73 sqm of floor space and interiors that resemble the ambience of a luxurious hotel suite, it is definitely not your average private jet.
With a capacity to accommodate up to 16 passengers, this plane features a spacious living room, ideal for entertaining guests, along with a kitchen and dining table that can comfortably seat eight people.
Furthermore, a well–appointed lounge area awaits, complete with a large 55–inch TV. As an added feature, the plane has a Master Suite, equipped with a King–sized bed and an en–suite bathroom. Smart technology touchscreens are conveniently placed throughout the plane, ensuring comfort and convenience are always at your fingertips.
To enhance the experience, the aircraft can be fully customised to suit passengers’ preferences and needs. Guests seeking a lively atmosphere can request an in–house DJ to provide entertainment throughout the flight. For those who desire a more relaxed ambience can convert one of the lounge areas into a second bedroom, akin to a cinematic haven.
Chartering this remarkable jet will cost guests approximately $14,000 per hour, depending on the chosen destination. For a party of 16 passengers, this price is comparable to a business class ticket. The aircraft can fly guests to any destination worldwide within a 12–hour range, starting from their base in Dubai.
As a commitment to environmental sustainability, FIVE Hotels & Resorts is dedicated to fully offsetting FLY FIVE’s annual emissions. By aligning with Nature–Based Carbon Credits, the company ensures that for every flight taken with the 9H–FIVE, a tree will be planted.
FIVE Hotels & Resorts proudly stands as a direct advocate for rainforest preservation and reforestation, safeguarding our planet’s vital ecosystems and biodiversity through the purchase of credits attached to forest conservation projects.
