Watch live as the completely customized luxury aircraft is named the newest member of Crystal’s award-winning fleet during VIP Las Vegas ceremony
WHAT: Crystal AirCruises’ fully custom-built Boeing 777-200LR will be christened in Las Vegas in a ceremony at McCarran International Airport. Crystal will livestream the event via Facebook Live feed on its Crystal Cruises Facebook page, allowing luxury travel enthusiasts from all over the world to welcome the newest member of Crystal’s award-winning fleet. Crystal CEO and president, Edie Rodriguez, will be joined by local dignitaries and VIP executives from Crystal’s parent company, Genting Hong Kong, for the official unveiling of the aircraft, which will be christened by a specially chosen godfather, also announced during the momentous ceremony.
Embarking in August into the luxury charter aviation market, Crystal’s B-777 is the largest and most spacious privately owned luxury tour jet in the world, offering bespoke experiences for travelers at all points during the journey. An executive chef oversees Michelin-inspired feasts paired with fine vintages from the SkyeCellar, while Crystal SkyeButlers attend to all guests’ wishes, from special requests upon landing to steaming and polishing of garments on board. With such a remarkably designed aircraft capable of an astonishing 19.5-hour non-stop flight range and offering first-class service to the world, Crystal AirCruises has created a luxury class of its own.
