Are these guys for real ? BizjetExpress' domain has only been registered for 2 years, is hosted on a mass server alongside some other 2500 websites, and the legs offered are clearly not real. It shows empty legs in an Eclipse from Chartres to Fairoaks. Apart from the fact that Chartres is too short for jet traffic (even Cessna 310 twin piston cannot ops public transport out of Chartres), Eclipse has only just delivered a couple of aircraft, and none of them to Europe.
In my opinion this site has been set up by a dreamer. As Phil mentioned in an earlier post there are too many daft brokers. It's high time that the broker industry was regulated and bonded to ensure that the consumer is not at risk of losing his/her money. After all, carriers have to undergo a financial fitness check before they get their AOC and operating licence.
What frightens me most about Bizjet Express is the fact that you can actually buy one of these legs (they have a page that takes credit card payments). Scary !!!
