Farnborough Airport and Edmiston co-operate

Private jet airport Farnborough and yacht brokerage company Edmiston have announced a collaboration deal to provide a fully immersive experience for passengers travelling through the airport. This follows a similar deal between Edmiston and London Heliport. 

The Edmiston Lounge is an area where travellers can relax and unwind before flying, as they experience the Edmiston lifestyle. From July, the terminal’s striking air-side radar tower will also showcase Edmiston branding.

The Edmiston Lounge is a fully bespoke design, filled with rich, textured fabrics and furniture and aims to provide a seamless, relaxing travel experience from start to finish.

The space pairs natural upholstery with touches of Edmiston red, sleek coffee tables in wood, marble and chrome and leathered panelled walls. Private jet travellers will be enveloped in the Edmiston world through beautiful photography, a travel library, objets d’art and yacht models, while they enjoy a range of delicious refreshments in the lounge.

Those short of time can reach Farnborough Airport in just 12mins by helicopter from the Edmiston London Heliport, or it is a 40min drive from London.

The terminal offers multiple lounges, private meeting rooms, refreshments, a dedicated concierge and even gaming consoles to keep younger travellers entertained.

Simon Geere, CEO of Farnborough Airport, says: “We believe there is great brand synergy between Edmiston and Farnborough Airport in offering exceptional service and an unrivalled private travel experience. We are delighted to launch our collaboration with Edmiston and we look forward to welcoming clients travelling through our airport as they wait for their departure”.

Jamie Edmiston, Chief Executive of Edmiston, says guests can experience the Edmiston lifestyle whilst waiting for their flight. “We will offer them the greatest service and comfort when using the jet terminal, much as they would receive on one of our yachts, providing a completely seamless service from sky to sea”, he says.
