The Challenge

No Interactive Booking Workflow
  • The existing website served as a marketing brochure with no digital flight-booking capability.
  • Co-owners had no direct way to book flights online, creating friction in an otherwise premium brand experience.

Complex Ownership Verification
  • A booking system needed to validate if the user was a JetOut co-owner within HubSpot CRM.
  • If verified → booking should succeed seamlessly.
  • If not → users should be redirected into a co-ownership inquiry flow, converting interest into qualified leads.
Filters & Information Architecture
  • Flight booking involved multiple variables—origin, destination, time, aircraft, passenger details, baggage, and carry-ons.
  • Required a structured, user-friendly interface to ensure clarity without overwhelming the user.

Luxury-Grade Design Expectations
  • The interface needed to reflect Jet OUT’s premium aviation brand.
  • Balance between elegance and technical complexity was paramount.

Scalability & HubSpot Integration
  • Booking logic needed to integrate seamlessly with HubSpot CRM, enabling automated workflows for sales teams.
  • The system had to be scalable for future services and device-responsive for executives booking on the go.

Our Approach

hermitcrabs designed and engineered JetOut’s flight booking calculator as both a luxury digital product and a conversion engine, merging design excellence with backend logic.


Research & Experience Mapping

We mapped the entire co-owner booking journey, adapting familiar airline booking behaviors into JetOut’s premium context:

Landing Page

  • Introduced the booking experience with clear framing for co-owners.
  • Differentiated messaging: “Book Your Flight as a Jet OUT Co-Owner” vs “Explore Co-Ownership Opportunities.”
Landing Page

Flight Listing Page

  • Displayed all available and empty-leg flights.
  • Included intuitive filters for departure, arrival, aircraft type, and time.
  • Designed for quick scanning and high clarity.
Flight Listing Page

Detail Page

  • Comprehensive flight information: route, schedule, jet model, available seats, baggage limits.
  • Clear “Book Now” CTA initiating the calculator + form flow.
Detail Page

Booking Form (Calculator Flow)

  • Structured like a luxury airline engine but adapted for JetOut’s business logic.
  • Input fields included:
    • Pre-filled flight route & timing
    • Passenger names and counts
    • Baggage and carry-on details
    • Personal information (contact, co-owner ID)
  • Designed for simplicity, accuracy, and premium feel.
Booking Form (Calculator Flow)

Submission & Verification

  • On submit, serverless backend verified user data against HubSpot CRM:
    • If Verified Co-Owner: Flight booking confirmed → success message displayed instantly → sales team notified via HubSpot workflow.
    • If Not Co-Owner: Redirected to a Co-Ownership Inquiry Page, reframing booking intent into a strategic sales conversation.

This mapping ensured the system felt familiar yet exclusive—a seamless bridge between air-ticket booking and JetOut’s unique co-ownership model.

Submission & Verification

User Flow Customization

The booking calculator was more than a form; it was a dual-purpose conversion engine, balancing co-owner convenience with prospect acquisition.

  • Flight Selection: From the listing page, users selected a route and aircraft.
  • Detail Review: Viewed specifications, passenger allowances, baggage limits, and timing.
  • Booking Calculator Form: Entered all details typically found in a commercial booking (passengers, baggage, personal data), packaged in a clean, premium design.
  • Verification Logic: Serverless backend queried HubSpot CRM to identify user status.
    • Path A — Co-Owner: Immediate confirmation with success message; internal sales team automatically alerted.
    • Path B — Not a Co-Owner: Redirect to a tailored inquiry page presenting JetOut’s co-ownership model and capturing intent as a high-quality lead.

The end result:

Every submission—whether booking or inquiry—generated business value.

  • For co-owners → a frictionless flight booking system that elevated their JetOut experience.
  • For prospects → a subtle but effective funnel introducing them to JetOut’s ownership and leasing opportunities.
