Galileo
has signed a new multi-year global content distribution agreement with US Helicopter, the
‘Eight-Minute Airport Shuttle.’ Through the agreement, all of US Helicopter’s published fares and
inventory will be available to Galileo-connected travel agencies worldwide.
US Helicopter’s scheduled service offers business travelers an
affordable and hassle-free
eight-minute airport commute between two Manhattan Heliports, John F. Kennedy International
Airport (JFK) and Newark Liberty International Airport (Newark Liberty). In partnership with Delta Air
Lines at JFK and through a codeshare agreement with Continental Airlines at Newark Liberty,
passengers flying on US Helicopter’s partner airlines have the added advantage of receiving a
boarding pass and baggage check - through to their final destination. Customers clear TSA security
screening at the heliport and board their US Helicopter flight, arriving at the airport on the secure
side where they go directly to their outbound flight when traveling with a partner airline.
“Our partnership with Galileo will prove to be valuable, as we can now better provide travelers efficient access to US Helicopter inventory
with high levels of accuracy, reliability and security through every transaction,” said Jerry Murphy, chief executive officer and president of
US Helicopter. “Galileo provides the distribution channels necessary to expand the customer base of US Helicopter.”
