TurboJET (Chinese: 噴射飛航; Jyutping: pan3 se6 fei1 hong4) is the brand name for the operations of the Hong Kong-headquartered Shun Tak-China Travel Ship Management Limited (Chinese: 信德中旅船務管理有限公司), which was established from the joint venture between Shun Tak Holdings Limited and China Travel International Investment Hong Kong Limited in July 1999. It operates hydrofoil ferry services between Hong Kong, Macau, Shenzen and Zhuhai, in the Pearl River Delta area.
It acquired New Ferry -Transporte Marítimo de Passageiros (Macau) Limitada (abbreviated New World First Ferry (Macau)) from NWS Holdings with 350 million in cash on 11 August 2011, and completed the transaction on 30 September.
Shun Tak and China Travel had their own separate ferry business brands before merging as TurboJET, on 1 July 1999. They were Far East Hydrofoil / Far East Jetfoil by Shun Tak, and Turbo Cat by CTS Parkview Company Ltd.
TurboJET provides services between Hong Kong, Hong Kong International Airport, Macau, Shenzhen and Guangzhou, all located around the Pearl River Delta in southern China. The route between Hong Kong and Macau is the busiest, operating 24 hours a day, taking approximately one hour to travel the 70 kilometres (43 mi) journey on TurboJET's high speed vessels.
