Tailwind Air, a veteran-owned business based in
Manhattan, New York, has appointed APG as its online General Sales
Agent (GSA) in the USA.
Founded in 2012, Tailwind Air offers a number of
flight connections from Manhattan (NYS), Nantucket (ACK) and Boston (BNH) saving
customers time by providing access to waterways and smaller
airports closer to urban cores.
Under the agreement, APG will provide the seaplane
operator with a wide range of sales development and marketing.
The distinctive service eliminates the challenges
of navigating airports, avoiding crowds and congestion, and
providing travelers with potential time savings of 50-75%, while
maintaining competitive commissions and fares.

“At Tailwind Air, we make it part of our mission
to align with global institutions that could impact the industry
in a positive way, especially ones that value innovation as much
as we do,” said Alan Ram, CEO of Tailwind Air. “We are looking
forward to collaborating with APG to further expand our reach,
including but not limited to the corporate travel sector. We
believe that our partnership will be at the forefront of corporate
travel for years to come.”
In addition to a number of jets, Tailwind Air
operates a fleet of Cessna Caravan seaplanes.
All seaplane flights are capable of landing on
water or land, feature two pilots, comfortable seating and air
conditioning.
“We are excited to announce our role as the
General Sales Agent for Tailwind Air in the United States.
Tailwind Air’s dedication to passenger convenience and their
innovative approach to air travel are truly impressive. Through
this collaboration, we are eager to enhance Tailwind Air’s
visibility and offer Northeast travelers an exceptional journey,”
said Juliana Hill, CEO of APG USA.
