It was a race against time to transport 65 musicians from Berlin to a performance in Vienna when their scheduled flight was cancelled.
Urgent flight for an orchestra stranded in Berlin
An orchestra in Berlin needed help getting to a performance in Vienna when their scheduled flight was cancelled at the last minute. With rail strikes in the German capital ruling out making the journey by train, we set about arranging a cost-effective same-day aircraft charter to get them there in time.
Our Solution
Route: Berlin > Vienna
Aircraft: De Havilland Dash 8-400
Wasting no time, our expert brokers knew which local operators to contact to secure an aircraft with space for the 65 musicians and their instruments, which included five bulky cellos.
We negotiated a competitive rate for a Dash 8-400, which was ideally tailored to accommodate the orchestra’s needs; before securing last-minute flight slots and ground handling at the busy airports in Berlin and Vienna.
