SUGARLOAF KEY, FLORIDA, USA --( March, 2009) Travelers this summer to South Florida can now take their passion for camping even further, to the KOA site at Sugarloaf Key, where Airstream Trailers are now available as stationary rental units.
SugarLoaf Key is one of the first locations to implement this partnership between KOA and Airstream to make the iconic silver trailers known for their contemporary designs and upscale amenities available at KOA sites around the country for rent.
The relationship with KOA – which has more than 455 locations across North America – will make the latest Airstream models available to the public at a variety of stunning locations. For the first time, people will be able to experience an Airstream without having to buy or tow one. Simply make a reservation, show up and camp with all the convenience, fun, and safety that KOA has to offer.
“Airstreams have a unique sense of style, a history of quality, and an undeniable timelessness that is really exciting for us,” said Shane Ott, president and chief operating officer of Billings, Montana-based KOA.
“Expanding our already substantial accommodations offerings to include Airstreams at certain locations just makes sense. Bringing these two brands together will be very powerful. We are going to introduce a lot of campers to the Airstream experience.”
To launch the Airstream program, KOA purchased 25 2009 Flying Cloud models for company operated campgrounds in Las Vegas, Nevada; Bar Harbor, Maine; and Sugarloaf Key, Florida. In addition, KOA franchisees will have the opportunity to purchase Airstream models for their properties, and both companies expect the network of rental units to expand rapidly in 2009.
The Flying Cloud is a new model for 2009 that takes its name from Airstream lore. Featuring a fusion of contemporary design and traditional Airstream style, the hand-built Flying Cloud features flush-mount wood grain cabinetry, exposed aluminum interior skin, recessed lighting and oversize windows that maximize interior light and expand its sense of spaciousness. A well-appointed galley easily accommodates pre-dawn poached eggs and toast for two, or an after-rock-climb paella and sangria for six.
KOA units will feature different flooring and slight structural enhancements to prepare them for high traffic occupancy, but otherwise will be identical to models sold on dealer lots.
Information about KOA locations featuring Airstream travel trailers can be found at KOA.com.
Airstream, Inc., of Jackson Center, Ohio is the oldest recreational vehicle manufacturer in the world. Today’s Airstreams are the perfect blend of retro exterior style, modern interior luxury and convenience, and rugged all-American construction. For more information please visit www.Airstream.com.
