Sets Sail July 28 - August 1, 2009

Baja California Sur, Mexico - About 35 miles north of charming San Jose del Cabo, lies a region of Baja California Sur synonymous with sport fishing; the East Cape.

For the past decade, anglers from around the world gather here to compete for large cash prizes and enjoy the plentiful waters of the Sea of Cortes, home to of some of the world’s largest billfish. The 10th Annual East Cape Offshore Tournament will take place July 28-August 1, 2009.

“The state of Baja California Sur is proud to welcome back the East Cape Offshore Tournament for the 10th consecutive year,” says Alberto Treviño, Secretary of Tourism for Baja California Sur.

“Our waters offer experienced anglers world-renowned fishing conditions, capturing the essence of Baja Sur that lures visitors back year after year.”

Presented by Snell Real Estate and Las Villas de Mexico, the East Cape Offshore Tournament offers payouts to anglers for gamefish species in addition to marlin, for which the region is well known.

In 2008, the tournament awarded over $300,000 in cash prizes and included 56 participating teams.

The annual East Cape Offshore Tournament is one of three tournaments produced by Bisbee’s Black & Blue Tournaments in Baja California Sur. Due to the size of the cash awards, number of teams that enter and the locations, special rules regarding tournament entry and payment apply.

The beautiful Hotel Buena Vista Beach Resort, a favorite among anglers, will provide accommodations for this year’s tournament.

About Barceló Hotels & Resorts

Barceló Hotels & Resorts is among the world’s top 25 largest hospitality and travel companies. Barceló was established in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, in 1931, first as a transportation provider and then as a hotel and travel company.

The family-owned, privately held company has been world-renowned for more than 75 years for its excellence in service and its innovation within the tourism industry.

The hotel company owns or manages more than 180 properties in 16 countries. Barceló’s hotels and resorts are found in key destinations and cities throughout Europe, North America, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean.

The company offers a large variety of hotels and resort types to accommodate all travelers, from budget-minded to upscale guests seeking luxurious accommodations.

Barceló specializes in all-inclusive resorts that make vacation planning both convenient and affordable, offering one upfront, all-encompassing price.

Jet-It-Together announced the launch of www.jet-it-together.com , the online community where members experience significant cost savings on private jet travel by matching their itineraries with other members who have the same travel plans.

By aggregating individual trip itineraries, Jet-It-Together members can save up to 70% on private jet travel as compared with a traditional whole plane charter.

Jet-It-Together provides a cooperative approach for its members to share in the cost of private jet charter. When a member initiates a trip, or decides to join a trip that has already been initiated by another member, the website displays the cost of the trip one way.

If the member is initiating a new trip, Jet-It-Together notifies other members to give them the opportunity to join the shared trip. Once there is sufficient interest to cover the estimated trip cost, Jet-It-Together negotiates the exact pricing with a FAA Part 135 charter operator.

The final cost of the trip for each member is then adjusted, based upon the final number of travelers and the negotiated cost of the trip. Members can also secure the whole plane if they do not wish to share with other Jet-It-Together members. As with the shared trips, Jet-It-Together will negotiate the most competitive cost from a range of operators.

Jet-It-Together members can also use the Going My Way? feature to build a “wish list” of trips. These are trips that a member would like to take, but are open-ended and would only be scheduled if other members shared in the cost of the private jet charter.

The technology powering Jet-It-Together.com allows members to control the complete process for shared private jet travel. Members can map trips, receive cost estimates, initiate new trips, review and join existing trips, manage their personal profiles, receive email updates and confirmations, and, through links to other suppliers, purchase travel insurance. Jet-It-Together has an instructive online demo and web-based customer support.

“Jet-It-Together is building an online community that will redefine the private jet experience, providing greater affordability and convenience for travelers.

This new online service gives members the option to have an enjoyable travel experience for a fraction of the cost of traditional private jet charters.

When you join the online community, you gain access to a wide choice of regional, as well as hub airports, and the ability to truly control your travel time in the air and on the ground,” said John Ackermann, one of the founders Jet-It-Together, LLC.

Since Jet-It-Together is not a charter operator, nor does it have any investment in or from charter operators, the company has the flexibility to continually review and manage a pool of pre-screened Part 135 operators that the company believes meet the highest standards for offering the safest and best service to its members. Having that independence allows Jet-It-Together experts to negotiate the best pricing and services for its members.
