Shagadelic Skies Over Augusta

Alright shagadelic baby it seems the Masters Tournament is not just about golf anymore it's a full-blown Austin Powers-style extravaganza for the jet set. Apparently thousands of private jets are descending upon Augusta Georgia turning it into a veritable runway of luxury. NetJets Flexjet and Vista are all vying for airspace and bragging rights with the kind of gusto I usually reserve for foiling Dr. Evil's plans. As I always say "It's not the size of the yacht it's the motion of the ocean" and these guys are definitely making waves.

Yeah Baby Demand is Off the Charts

Groovy baby the CEO of Flexjet Mike Silvestro says demand is off the charts. No surprise there especially with all the government shutdowns and airport delays. It's like everyone's trying to escape to a world where shag carpets and questionable dance moves are still in vogue. And speaking of charts the swarm of Gulfstreams Phenoms and Challengers is putting a serious strain on Augusta Regional Airport. They've even raised the "special event fee" which I can only assume goes towards stocking up on more shagadelic decorations.

Ground Control to Major Party

But hold on Austin it doesn't stop in the air. Oh no the real action happens after landing. These jet companies are transforming Augusta into a playground for the rich and famous renting mansions hiring Michelin-star chefs and hosting nightly parties that would make even me blush. It's all part of the hospitality game and they are all trying to stay connected with their customers beyond just when they're in the air. I mean who wouldn't want to party with a Grammy-winning country star while discussing the finer points of putters and pitches

NetJets' Night of Nights

NetJets is apparently throwing the hottest ticket in town a Friday night party shrouded in more secrecy than Dr. Evil's lair. Past parties have been hosted by sports commentator Jim Nantz and featured musical guests like Noah Kahan Chris Stapleton and Zac Brown. The goal is simple to relax grab a meal or drink and even schmooze with some of NetJets' golf ambassadors. Talk about a swingin' good time yeah baby

Vista's Very Vogue Venue

Vista Global is going all out with Vista House a private home transformed into a branded hospitality venue complete with nightly dinners entertainment and appearances by brand ambassadors like Gary Player Jon Rahm Phil Mickelson and Patrick Reed. They're even recreating the vibe of their planes down to the scent and those ever-popular Vista beach towels. Apparently some clients are flying in from as far away as Japan South Korea Singapore India and Brazil to get a piece of this action.

Flexjet's Flight Path

Now here's a company that is doing things a little differently. Flexjet instead of joining the party scene is focusing solely on getting clients to and from the event smoothly. They've moved their operations to Thomson-McDuffie Regional Airport which is closer to where people are staying and allows for quicker in-and-out access. Their CEO Mike Silvestro thinks the Masters is already oversaturated with parties and events so they are aiming for stress-free seamless travel. As I always say "That's not my bag baby"
