This recognition is the second award for VOO after winning Technology Innovation of the Year Award earlier this year. The firm unveiled its instant booking technology at EBACE last month in partnership with its launching customer charter firm GlobeAir. 

Robert Plhak, CEO at VOO flights said: “Winning a second prestigious award within a short timeframe is truly remarkable. It’s a great validation of the transformative power of our technology and the dedication of our entire team. This recognition further motivates us to push the boundaries of innovation on the way to make our platform the industry standard.”

The platform streamlines the traditionally complex booking process for both brokers and operators, eliminating back-and-forth negotiations and manual paperwork. Through VOO’s platform, brokers gain instant access to GlobeAir’s aircraft availability and pricing, enabling them to generate swift and accurate offers for their clients. The technology won first place from a shortlist of 18.

“It’s time for business aviation to embrace technology that optimises processes and improves the experience for all business aviation professionals. VOO is here to lead the charge, and these awards encourage us to inspire the adoption of innovative solutions across the industry,” added Plhak.

This integration, completed this month, covers flight scheduling functionalities, in large part to speed charter sales. All processes in the flight planning and execution phases will now be automated, eliminating the need for two separate systems. Skylegs automatically sends the aircraft schedule to VOO, with real-time availability and location information that VOO uses to calculate charter prices.

Maxim Schelfhout, managing director at Skylegs, said: “The partnership allows our operators to offer their fleet in the VOO innovative marketplace. It provides them with an additional sales channel seamlessly integrated into their core software, Skylegs. It is our privilege to work together with Robert and his team, who are pioneering this side of the business.”

Skylegs’ aircraft schedule tools mean users can book missions, flights, aircraft positioning, optional flights, reservations and maintenance programmes through VOO. Also, the team can access the schedule from any computer, phone or tablet. As well as calculating accurate quotes, payments can be made 24/7 with VOOpay, even on weekends and holidays, it said.

Robert Plhak, CEO & partner at VOO flights, said: “We are excited about our new partnership with Skylegs. This integration will allow us to provide operators already working with Skylegs with enhanced charter booking experience. While VOO focuses on reducing the quantity and improving the quality of charter bookings for brokers and operators, Skylegs encompasses the complex process of flight management and the critical aspect of streamlining operations to maximise efficiency. We are very pleased with the way the integration testing phase has been completed and look forward to the future benefits of this partnership for all parties.”
