EvoLux Transportation Launches Online Short-Distance Travel Solution

BOCA RATON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EvoLux Transportation, LLC announced yesterday the launch of Evo-lux.com (http://www.evo-lux.com), an online software platform that enables scheduling and coordination of helicopter flights by matching traveler needs with available equipment through partnerships with regional helicopter operators. The web application enables passengers to designate a desired travel time and destination, and sends flight request notifications to local helicopter operators who are fit for the mission. Operators then respond with availability and pricing information. The system then coordinates customer acceptance of the trip and ultimately, the booking, confirmation itinerary, and payment details.

“EvoLux clients will enjoy Per-Seat On-Demand 'Sky-Limo' shuttles aboard our region’s most highly reputable FAA certified fleet of helicopters. Just imagine being able to go 50 miles in 15 minutes! We call it taking the 'ultimate HOV lane.'”

Created to make helicopter travel more affordable and accessible to business and leisure travelers, and to address the problem of congested highways, Evo-Lux.com offers Heli-Tours, Heli-Excursions and Sky-Limo Shuttles to and from airports/heliports, resorts, casinos, and other high-demand locations in South Florida. Pricing per seat goes down as the number of travelers increases. Soon the company will introduce a community that enables solo-flying members to find each other on common routes and book together prior to traveling.

According to EvoLux Founder, Raymond B. Leavitt, “EvoLux clients will enjoy Per-Seat On-Demand 'Sky-Limo' shuttles aboard our region’s most highly reputable FAA certified fleet of helicopters. Just imagine being able to go 50 miles in 15 minutes! We call it taking the 'ultimate HOV lane.'”

“EvoLux is providing a high-value service not only to travelers, but also to helicopter operators who have underutilized equipment, “ stated Luis Folgueira, Chief Pilot of Professional Helicopter Services of Miami. “This is just the shot in the arm our industry needs to increase volume and provide a reasonable alternative mode of transportation while solving highway congestion issues.”

EvoLux has harmonized an inventory of 30+ helicopters that vary in size, mission capability, and geographic point of origin with an operating space ranging from Orlando to the Keys, and Naples to the Bahamas.
