Germany is a key European market for business aviation. Second only to France in private flight volumes, it sees over 100,000 aircraft movements per year – a 14% share of the total European market.

A growing proportion of PrivateFly’s existing clients are German and we are expanding our German operation to drive growth in this important region. We already have a dedicated German web platform and we are now expanding our German-speaking team. Meet Sebastian Buchholz, Davide Paladino and Rachel Bennett!

Sebastian and Davide are part of our 24-hour flight team, led by Head of Operations Algy Trotter. They provide pricing and advice to our German-speaking clients, and manage flights to ensure that every detail is perfect.

Sebastian has combined his business studies with flying – he is a passionate pilot and has flown aircraft such as the Cessna 172, Cessna C210 with a turboprop engine and in the last few years the TBM 700 and TBM 850.

Davide is Swiss and began his professional career in banking and has worked in aviation as a flight attendant, as well as studying Business Management.

Rachel recently joined our expanding digital marketing team, to help develop our German website and marketing content. Rachel is an experienced traveler, and speaks both German and English fluently. Her studies include a masters degree in Business Administration and Marketing at Cologne University.

Since the recession, cost-consciousness and transparency have become more important in Germany (factors that are transforming our industry everywhere in fact). Of course, this must go hand-in hand with impeccable expertise, and a focus on safety and VIP customer service. PrivateFly’s combination of innovative technology with an expert team has a great deal to offer today’s German private jet customer.
