Spanish term or phrase: Sin más trámites que volar.
Hi all,

This is a catch phrase for a web site (marketing) for an Air Service in South America.

I would love to hear any ideas on how to translate this into a nice English catchy phrase.

I understand perfectly what it means, but I do not want to translate it literally.

I have thought of the following:

No formalities, just fly!

But let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,

Laura

Explanation:
Sit back and fly.

Hassle-free flying.

One simple step: just fly!

Flying made simple / We make flying simple.

Just fly, we'll take care of the rest.

And so on... hope that gives you some ideas, anyway.
