HELPING PATIENTS ACCESS TREATMENT: NETJETS & CORPORATE ANGEL NETWORK

Since 1997, NetJets and its customers have supported Corporate Angel Network (CAN) by donating hundreds of flight hours to adult and pediatric patients with cancer traveling to and from treatment. In 2018, NetJets enhanced its partnership with this phenomenal organization and increased the number of flights secured for patients by matching customer flight-hour donations up to 50 hours annually. Now, they are extending their program to include the NetJets Corporate Angel Card™. With the purchase of a new 25-hour NetJets Corporate Angel Card™, NetJets will contribute one flight hour to patients with cancer. NetJets customers will fly the bestselling Cessna® Citation® XLS® for all flights under 3.5 hours.

Reliable Access to Care Corporate Angel Network is a 501(c)(3) organization that helps patients with cancer access the best treatment by arranging free travel on corporate aircraft. Private jet travel makes it possible for patients, especially those located in areas with minimal airline access, to travel to specialized medical centers and return to a fixed-base operator (FBO) that’s closer to home. Private travel also alleviates the physical stress and exposure of going through commercial airports. By giving Corporate Angel Network access to more flying opportunities, patients with cancer gain increased access to the best treatment programs—ultimately increasing their chances to defeat the disease. “Corporate Angel Network is an extraordinary organization that makes it possible for patients with cancer to get the life-saving treatment they need. As a parent, I can only imagine how devastating it is to care for a sick child while dealing with the many challenges and obstacles that can interrupt access to medical care. It is our privilege to support the incredible efforts of Corporate Angel Network by providing expanded access to flight operations.” — Adam Johnson, Chairman And CEO, NetJets

The Worldwide Leader in Private Aviation As the first private jet charter and management company, NetJets has led the industry for more than 55 years. Then in 1986, they revolutionized it with the concept of shared ownership and proceeded to build the largest, most diverse private jet fleet in the world. Today, as a Berkshire Hathaway company, NetJets offers a full range of personalized solutions to meet the needs of the world’s most discerning travelers. Explore multiple ways to fly with NetJets.
