An alternative proposition to chartering a yacht
Generally, those who are interested in chartering a yacht from Athens in order to visit the islands of the Saronic Gulf often face:
· Arriving at the marina of Alimos on Saturday noon, among hundreds of other people who try to leave too since most charters start on Saturdays
· Being Saturday noon, most markets are closed (with the exception of grocery stores), so if something is needed to be bought, waiting until Monday is necessary
· After long waits, the trips begin on the late afternoon, so the only available destinations are the nearest islands of Aegina and Poros, which during the weekends are filled with people. Available space at the ports is limited and the local taverns struggle to satisfy the never-ending customers. This results to many groups prolonging their stay at the marina of Alimos until Sunday afternoon and begin their trips then,
· Since most charters also end on Saturday morning, around 1500-2000 yachts almost simultaneously return to the marina of Alimos. Accordingly, from Thursday afternoon, the close destinations are also cramped and unsatisfying. In other words, paying for a 7-day vacation often results to the 5 actual days of sailing.
· The first and last impressions of the vacation are those of heat, crowds and bad services
· Also, airport fees for arrival and departure in weekends cost almost double than during weekdays.
For the above reasons, our company decided to create a more efficient vacation package, in order to better satisfy customers. We offer our yachts for weekly charters that start and finish in the middle of the weeks, from Wednesday to Thursday afternoon (or Wednesday morning).
· So, our customers get to pay less for airport fees (if they arrive from abroad)
· Arriving at the closer destinations on Wednesday afternoon results in more space for staying and better service due to smaller crowds
· Arrival and departure from the marina in Athens is pleasant, since it is quiet and lots of space exists. Shopping is also more broadly available.
· During the weekend, our clients are in further away destinations who are much less crowded and this results to a better quality of trips overall.
Also, in this way, if something needs to be mended on the yachts, or if something needs to be added to the inventory or equipment, all technicians, services and stores are available, eliminating the need to “patch” things on the yachts inefficiently.
Our company, having studied the most commonly faced issued that those who charter yachts face, has decided to offer a package that aims to the best satisfaction of the customers.
Furthermore, our company has also specialized some yachts in order to satisfy the needs of people with disabilities. The usual schedule of chartering (Saturday- Friday) had been proven inefficient, as the yachts had to find accessible spots in the already crowded marinas.
So, commencing the changes to avoid such problems, we also found that the overall package quality is better for weekly charters.
So, we offer all our yachts (both the specialized ones for people with disabilities and those not) for charters that commence on Wednesday noon, in order for our customers to have the best possible quality in the vacation.
