Ultimate personal care takes to the skies.

Trans-Exec Air Service, well-known among the Hollywood elite, is one of several airlines now offering in-flight spa services. With Flight Spa, a referral-based private spa club aboard the company's Gulfstream private jets, clients can enjoy regenerating and oxygenating Phytomer skincare treatments, along with comforting massages to ease travel tensions. Upon departure, passengers also receive a customized travel kit of skincare products.

Virgin Atlantic Airlines, known for its exceptional customer service, offers its upper class passengers Inflight Beauty Therapy. Stress-busting face and scalp massages, back and shoulder massages, zone therapy and facial treatments are all part of the in-flight service.

Passengers in transition at New York’s JFK airport, can ease travel jitters by visiting Oasis Day Spa located at Terminal 6. Oasis' on-the-go spa services offer weary travelers specialty treatments with GM Collin products to reduce puffy eyes, plump dehydrated skin and soothe tense muscles.

Cathay Pacific Airlines recently partnered with Dermalogica Skincare to design a high quality amenity kit for long-flight business class passengers. The response has been so favorable, says Cathay Pacific, that Dermalogica has begun training flight attendants on product benefits as traveler questions arise. With a goal of reaching over 600,000 passengers in the next year, this amenity is sure to stand 'noticed' by traveling consumers and industry leaders alike.

British Airways
Beyond being the airline with the best sleep environment in Business Class, British Airways also takes privacy into consideration with fan-like privacy screens that fold down between each flat-bed seat. The airline also offers Business Class passengers complimentary travel kits with Molton Brown products, and at the London Heathrow Business Class lounge there's complimentary neck and shoulder massages. The airline has also just opened a spiffy new spa at New York's JFK.
