ExecuJet adds second Pilatus PC-24 to portfolio for safari missions

Luxury aviation company ExecuJet has added a second Pilatus PC-24 jet to its managed fleet.

ExecuJet last year became the first company in Africa to use this aircraft for charter missions.

Both PC-24s will be based at Cape Town International Airport, which ExecuJet says is an ideal location for the safari missions the aircraft are used for.

“The offroad capabilities of the world’s first super versatile jet, the Pilatus PC-24, make it the perfect aircraft for exploring Africa. Its outstanding short and rough-field performance gives it the ability to land almost anywhere, making it invaluable in supporting the varied missions of ExecuJet’s new safari and tours division,” comments ExecuJet VP Gavin Kiggen.

He explains that the PC-24’s interior combines comfort and functionality with components specifically chosen to enhance the passenger experience, from soft leather finishes to rare hardwood cabinetry, as well as in-flight entertainment and connectivity.

“Its generously sized cabin can seat up to 11 passengers and boasts a continuous flat floor, providing considerable headroom. The aircraft can reach Angola, Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique from the Cape Town airport headquarters.”
