Leading private aviation brokerage partners with global yacht charter advisory firm, offering clients a seamless luxury experience across air and sea.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Exclusive Charter Service Inc. ("ECS"), a leading private aviation brokerage headquartered at Palm Beach International Airport, today announced a strategic partnership with Yachts Worldwide ("YWW"), an independent global yacht brokerage and charter advisory firm. The collaboration enables ECS clients to access curated yacht charter experiences worldwide, extending the company's commitment to exceptional service from the skies to the seas.
The partnership represents a natural evolution for ECS, which has spent over a decade building a reputation for discretion, reliability, and personalized service in the private jet charter industry. Over the years, ECS clients have increasingly expressed interest in yacht charter options that match the same caliber of advisory they receive in private aviation.
"Over the years, many of our clients have asked whether we could recommend a yacht advisory firm that operates with the same discipline and discretion they expect from us in private aviation," said Jason Johnson, Founder and CEO of Exclusive Charter Service. "This partnership with Yachts Worldwide allows us to say yes, and to do it with complete confidence in the quality of service our clients will receive."
A Complementary, Not Competitive, Relationship
ECS will remain exclusively focused on private aviation. The partnership with Yachts Worldwide is designed to complement, not replace, the company's core offering. Clients who express interest in yacht charters will be connected directly with YWW's dedicated advisory team, which specializes in luxury motor yacht charters, sailing experiences, and bespoke maritime itineraries across the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and beyond.
Yachts Worldwide maintains an active fleet portfolio of over 650 charter vessels, ranging from 50-foot sailing catamarans to 200-foot-plus superyachts, with seasonal availability in the world's most sought-after cruising grounds including the Bahamas, British Virgin Islands, Greek Islands, the French Riviera, and Croatia.
"We built Yachts Worldwide to reflect the same client-first philosophy that has made ECS successful in aviation," said Kiara Liane, Director of Sales and Marketing at Yachts Worldwide. "Our clients aren't just booking a yacht. They're planning an experience. Whether it's a family holiday in the Bahamas, a corporate retreat along the Amalfi Coast, or a Monaco Grand Prix weekend aboard a superyacht, we handle every detail with the same white-glove approach ECS clients have come to expect."
What ECS Clients Can Expect
Through this partnership, ECS clients will have access to:
Personalized yacht charter advisory: Dedicated consultation to match vessels, crew, and itineraries to individual preferences and occasions.
Global fleet access: Over 650 charter yachts across all major cruising regions, from intimate sailing vessels to full-crew superyachts.
Seamless coordination: Integrated travel planning that connects private aviation arrangements with yacht charter logistics, including airport-to-marina transfers.
Exclusive partner pricing: Preferred rates and priority availability for ECS clients on select vessels and seasonal itineraries.
Concierge-level service: From provisioning and onboard dining to shore excursions and event access, every element of the charter experience is curated.
Meeting Growing Demand in Luxury Travel
The partnership comes at a time of sustained growth in both the private aviation and luxury yacht charter markets. According to industry data, the global yacht charter market is projected to exceed $25 billion by 2030, driven by increasing demand from high-net-worth individuals seeking private, flexible travel experiences. The overlap between private jet and yacht charter clientele has become increasingly apparent, with many luxury travelers seeking a single trusted advisory relationship across both domains.
ECS has seen this trend firsthand. The company's client base, which includes business executives, family offices, entertainment industry professionals, and high-net-worth individuals, has consistently expressed interest in extending their travel experience beyond aviation.
"The synergy between private aviation and yacht charter is undeniable," Johnson added. "Our clients already trust us to get them anywhere in the world on their schedule. Now we can ensure that when they arrive at the marina, the same level of care and preparation is waiting for them on the water."
Looking Ahead
ECS and Yachts Worldwide plan to introduce joint marketing initiatives, co-branded travel experiences, and seasonal charter packages beginning in Spring 2026. The companies will also explore collaborative offerings for major events including the Monaco Grand Prix, Caribbean holiday season, and Mediterranean summer charter season.
Existing ECS clients will receive a formal introduction to the Yachts Worldwide team via direct communication in the coming weeks, with dedicated points of contact for charter inquiries and itinerary planning.
