Wheels Up and Fraser Yachts Partner to Bridge Air and Sea Travel

The collaboration integrates Wheels Up’s on-demand aviation network with Fraser’s fleet of over 2,300 charter yachts. Clients can now access a consultative booking service that manages the entire journey, whether requiring helicopter transfers or seamless transitions from Delta One commercial flights to private aircraft. In specific regions, the use of Tropic Ocean Airways seaplanes allows for direct transfers to waiting yachts, removing the typical hurdles associated with multi-modal luxury travel.

Beyond simple logistics, the agreement grants Wheels Up members preferred rates on yacht charters and access to Fraser’s team of 240 specialists. Conversely, Fraser clients receive exclusive benefits across the Wheels Up aviation platform. George Mattson, CEO of Wheels Up, stated the move is a natural extension of the company’s lifestyle ecosystem, while Fraser CEO Anders Kurtén emphasized that the partnership addresses the growing demand for cohesive, shared experiences among global travelers. The two brands plan to leverage their combined presence at major industry events, including the Monaco Yacht Show and the Palm Beach International Boat Show, to offer clients specialized access and hospitality.
