FLY FIVE

THE FIVE-STAR FLYING HOTEL POWERED BY The ACJ TwoTwenty During the 2021 Dubai Airshow - the first in-person postcovid aviation gathering – FIVE group announced a surprising order for the first Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty from Comlux. What was the vision that drove this acquisition decision?

As a boundary breaking disruptive hospitality entity that is world-renowned for excellence in customer delight, Fly FIVE is a natural evolution of FIVE’s bouquet of immersive entertainment offerings.

As with FIVE Hotels and Resorts on the ground, Fly FIVE welcomes guests to experience an ultra-luxe, bespoke inair entertainment experience, allowing passengers to indulge in the most opulent surroundings in the skies.

Fly FIVE is truly a ‘FIVE-Star’ experiential offering for the discerning private jet aficionado.

Notably, Fly FIVE has taken off into a new sustainability frontier. Dedicated to entirely offsetting FLY FIVE’s emissions (an estimated 600 hours per year), the company has partnered with Nature-Based Carbon Credits, becoming a direct champion of rainforest preservation. By acquiring credits attached to forest conservation projects, FIVE has taken key action to protect the Earth’s crucial biodiversity.”

Fly FIVE

With the delivery of the first ACJ TwoTwenty registered 9H-FIVE- in May this year, FIVE announced the start of a new chapter in its award-winning entertainment-driven hospitality portfolio. Can you give us an overview of your new ‘Airborne’ experience offering?

The Fly FIVE ACJ TwoTwenty is a dare-to-be-different jet.

Its spacious cabin for up to 15 passengers boasts all the conveniences of modern luxury living, but in the sky. The main cabin offers an open lounge and a dining table for up to 8 passengers sharing a meal together. The aft lounge combines privacy and technology with an ultra large 55 in screen that could rival in-home theater experiences. The Master suite embraces a serene setting with a king-sized bed and spa-like shower for the ultimate experience in luxurious travel. All passengers can benefit from non-stop streaming and ultra-high-speed connectivity.

Installed throughout the cabin, smart technology touchscreens provide all the comfort and conveniences right at your fingertips. The electro-chromatic window shades offer passengers unparalleled panoramic views of the world below.”

FIVE group is known for its leadership in sustainability with some of the highly ranked “Smart and Sustainable” hotels in the world. How did this commitment contribute to the selection and operation of the new ACJ TwoTwenty - The most efficient aircraft in its category?

FIVE's 'Sustainable Indulgence' Ethos is all about breaking beyond the mold and pursuing an innovative, not restrictive, approach. The fact is, sustainable development requires the buy in of the whole world, not just the stereotypical spaces and interpretations; it has to be backed by science but adapt to meet all varieties of stakeholders and industry spaces. Planes are not disappearing nor is luxury. Rather the types of questions FIVE pursues is how we can take these spaces and products and deliver them in a cleaner, more efficient and climateforward way while maintaining and even enhancing their quality and luxury. Sustainability must not result in a world of reduced quality and consumer optionality - the fundamental raison d'etre of Sustainable Development is that it exists, and is in fact the only way, to unlock an even greater level of experience and development potential in our world. In this way, FIVE embraces luxury and flight within its Sustainability ethos, and will continue to

approach its products with a collaborative, iterative and innovative mindset, not one of cynicism and restriction.

The Comlux ACJ TwoTwenty offering is very particular in the Bizliners segment – Modified Airliners - as it allows for a modular interior design similar to the purpose build business jets offering. Can you walk us through the FIVE configuration and some of the key features in the FIVE jet?

The aircraft, 9H-FIVE, pronounced Nine-Hotel FIVE, has a performance range of 5,200 nm (with 4 Additional Fuel tanks) and an average speed of 460 kts / 850 km/h. The first-of-its-kind cabin dimensions are 78.1 ft in length and 10.8 ft in width with a height of 6.6 ft. The inflight entertainment system includes high-speed WiFi connectivity of up to 50 Mbps, two 55’’ inch screens, individual iPads Pro for each passenger, airshow full streaming, and personal device mirroring. With a home base in Dubai, the cabin seats 15 and sleeps 8 comfortably. With a crew of 2 pilots and 2 flight attendants, the aircraft can accommodate over 60 large suitcases European standard size.”

What is Sustainable Aviation Fuel?

Sustainable Aviation Fuel – SAF is any next-generation aviation fuel, made from 100% renewable waste and residue raw materials, like used cooking oil. SAF highly reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared to fossil jet fuel and can be used as a direct replacement (drop-in) for fossil jet fuel as it is chemically similar. It is fully compatible with existing jet engines and fueling infrastructure, requiring zero additional investment into them.
