Flexjet and luxury yacht leader Ferretti Group have unveiled their highly anticipated design collaboration with luxury yacht builder Riva, a unique cabin design for Flexjet’s S-76 interior, inspired by the iconic Riva motor yachts.

The Riva Volare interior will be installed in two of Flexjet’s S-76 helicopters, one in Florida and the other featuring in a new helicopter operation based in Milan, serving Italy and the French Riviera. This represents the growth of the company’s helicopter division into mainland Europe, adding to its existing rotary operations in London, New York and Florida and The Bahamas. The new service area will cater to growing demand from the company’s existing jet Owners and from new clients for helicopter flights in Italy and the South of France during the summer months, with Ferretti Group clients benefitting from preferential access.

The bespoke design scheme is the refined result of a combined vision and months of expert craftsmanship by in-house designers at both brands. Riva Volare features artisanal materials and bold patterns, textures and colours that draw on the classic silhouettes and recognisable design elements of the beloved Riva motor yachts blending details from the iconic 1960s Aquarama with the contemporary elegance of the Aquariva.

Kenn Ricci, Chairman of Flexjet said: “I have long admired the iconic style of Riva, and seeing this brought to life in our aircraft, is nothing short of exceptional. At Flexjet, design is more than an aesthetic bonus, it’s integral to the elevated experience we offer. The launch of Riva Volare in collaboration with Ferretti Group is a tangible expression of our shared commitment to evolving truly memorable experiences for UHNW and selective travellers. With Flexjet in our 30th year, Riva Volare is not only a celebration of a timeless design icon, but also a bold statement of where we’re going – defining the standard for what it means to be a modern luxury brand.”
