A Vancouver-based company is changing the way we travel.

Airble Aviation hosts an online marketplace for people to customize their air travel plans.

Kevin Adlparvar, with AirbleB次元官网网址檚 product and business development, says they are a tech company with an aviation focus.

B次元官网网址淲eB次元官网网址檝e got 33 aircrafts on the platform so far belonging to about 12 air operators or smaller airlines, and it gives passengers access to about 300 airports in B.C.B次元官网网址

Individuals and groups can go onto the website and book flights with more flexibility on day and time of departure. Depending on the destination and the air operator, the type of plane can also be selected.

B次元官网网址淲eB次元官网网址檙e not brokers and weB次元官网网址檙e not air operators ourselves, what we do is offer a platform for these air operators to list their services.B次元官网网址

Air operators must be registered to carry passengers and sell tickets in order to be listed on Airble.

B次元官网网址淭he partnerships have been really instrumental in the development of our company and this platform. Of course, we started with our very first one who had just a single aircraft that they brought onto the platform and ever since thereB次元官网网址檚 been a lot of strenuous work with the air operators to make sure this was a tool that worked for them as well.B次元官网网址

Not only can one book flights to more remote communities in B.C. rather than just to major airports, Airble allows companies to list flight tours.

B次元官网网址淭hese tour experiences are location specific. So, we have some that are based in Pitt Meadows, we have some that are based on the Gulf Islands, some that are based in Squamish. These operators are individually uploading those air tours and we have this marketplace platform where tourists can go and see everything and book and pay instantly.B次元官网网址

The platform isnB次元官网网址檛 meant to be a more affordable way to travel, just different.

B次元官网网址淭he benefit that comes with a custom charter booking platform like this is going to be flexibility. While we absolutely know that chartering a jet is only for a very, very small selection of the population, in many cases regional flights are actually the same cost as what a smaller scheduled carrier would be able to provide. In addition to that, what weB次元官网网址檙e really excited about is that itB次元官网网址檚 going to give folks the chance to reach way more destinations by aircraft than otherwise available.B次元官网网址

Airble currently has 10 air operators in B.C., with one air operator each in Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia. The ultimate goal is to partner with operators across the country.
