Their team is well-versed at arranging flight plans, organizing quarantine, issuing proper documentation, and everything in between to get your horse door-to-door as safely, comfortably and efficiently as possible.
“Last year was our first time sponsoring the National Horse Show, and we undoubtedly wanted to advance our support for 2019 after experiencing the success of the event and witnessing first-hand why the horse show is still one of the premier competitions in the United States after all these years,” commented Bastian Schroeder, founder and president of EquiJet. “We are so proud to be able to play a greater role in the National Horse Show’s success this year, and can’t wait for the event and all of its festivities in the fall.”
