Cloudcruising started its journey in 2014 at the time that The Airlander first showed its potential in the UK. Developed for the US military its uses where never meant to include tourism. Following years of discussions and meetings, tourism has become one of the main applications of this exciting new aircraft.

Dan Kotzmann and Gary Bartelings, Founders of Cloudcruising, are no strangers to unique, exclusive and luxury travel. Both have spend decades working for the APT Group in the UK, Germany and Australia and worked closely together in enhancing the offerings of Australia’s prime luxury Tour Operator Captain’s Choice. Their background includes operating private jet journeys’ including trips by small private jet to privately chartered Boeing 747’s.

Their philosophy is simple, if you can dream it we will try and find a way to make the dream reality. The Airlander is without a doubt a dream becoming reality and we hope to welcome you as one of our Cloudcruising Pioneers when you sign up for one of our exclusive trips commencing in 2025.

See our world from a different perspective.
