World-class private aviation solutions provider Magellan Jets announced a new program for the company's private clients, Magellan Jets Journeys, including in-air wine tastings. As part of their journey, a valued guest may enjoy an in-flight sommelier-led tasting—or an escape to Napa Valley’s Howard Backen Estate on Pritchard Hill, featuring tours of off-the-map vineyards, private wine experiences, and Michelin-starred dining.
Beyond in-air wine tastings, the Magellan Jets Journeys program provides private clients with other passion-centric travel experiences, like golf getaways and multi-day tours to play on historic courses, private fashion and museum tours, and adventures through the fjords of Norway. “Our goal has always been to deliver special moments that go beyond the flight itself,” said Joshua Hebert, Founder and CEO of Magellan Jets. “Magellan Jets Journeys is the next evolution of that promise."
