Private Jet Charter Guide part III   Many conditions can impact the price and details of a private jet charter, and here in part III of our private jet charter guide, we will list and explain the most common fees expected from a charter quote. Each individual part of these fees come together to build the final price you pay for your trip, and it is very important to know which factors can change the price or accessibility of a trip. We begin with some details that can severely impact the price you expect to pay: Runway length - Smaller aircraft don’t necessarily require enormous runway lengths and can often land at smaller, communal airports. But larger aircraft can require runway lengths of over 6000 ft, meaning a larger airport will be chosen to fulfill the trip. Larger airports tend to have higher fees, while smaller airports are more reasonable. Wind speed / traveling direction - It is well known that air currents can radically change to total amount of time required to fulfill a trip. The details are complex when factoring in random wind patterns and mountain formations as well as aircraft cruise routes. This can be seasonal or just simply random but will make a difference in the total price of your quote Availability - Availability is the most important aspect of private jet charter. There is a best aircraft for every trip, an aircraft that is very close to the departure location for a reasonable price, and often those aircraft can be booked indefinitely. Availability can make the difference between a $7,000 flight and a $11,000 flight with the same exact itinerary. In the case of an unavailable aircraft, the next step

 Private Jet Charter Guide - Part II Welcome to part II of our private jet charter guide, previously we discussed the basics of private jet charter here. Before continuing any further we must understand the concept of aircraft availability. Availability is what determines the aircraft chosen for your trip. We verify availability before issuing any hard quotes, that way our customers know which aircraft are available, and in the case of a booked aircraft, which aircraft to default on to, as well as the previously noted backup aircraft. Back to our example trip noted in part I of this guide; John has confirmed that he wants the Challenger 601 for his trip, as per Aircharter’s standard operating procedure, two other similar aircraft are also located and cross checked with availability in case of unavailability of the first aircraft choice. John doesn’t need to worry about any of this, as far as John knows, everything is all set for his trip. Within the following day, Aircharter delivers John’s itinerary, with full information such as takeoff and landing times, which FBO (fixed base operators) will be used, and direct contact information for both pilots. Included in the itinerary are catering details that John had specifically asked for. At this point, the trip is fully planned and ready to take off as soon as john is ready to fly. The aircraft of choice, the Challenger 601 would be repositioned to JFK airport awaiting John and his other passengers, at which point, he would board his aircraft and fly to Los Angeles. Now considering the fact that John wished to fly a round trip instead of a one way trip changes a great deal of options. If John were to

Private Jet Charter Guide Part 1 Private Jet Charter is a term given to the full rental of a private aircraft for a limited duration (usually the duration of the trip in question) but there are a lot of questions that arise when talking about private jet charter. How are prices calculated? How does private jet charter even work? Along with many other questions. Private jet charter is an alternative to private jet timeshare or fractional ownership. Both fractional ownership and private jet timeshare are a way to fly on private aircraft of your choice by essentially buying partial ownership of said aircraft. Now while fractional ownership and private jet timeshare have their own pros and cons (Both have been discussed and debunked as terrible methods here: Fractional Ownership, Private Jet Timeshare) private jet charter is a whole other idea. Private jet charter means that you pay for exactly what you use, nothing less and nothing more. In this part of our 4 part charter guide, we start by following an example trip, from the very beginning to the very end, and discuss all of the steps of your private jet charter. *Of course, for the sake of simplicity, we will assume this example trip is booked by a customer of ours and will run through our system. Of course other entities have their own booking engines and procedures, but we believe it will be more comprehensive to stick to what we know for this guide. A customer enters our website searching for a good deal on private jet charter, and uses our booking engine through the book a trip tab. This customer, who will hereon be referred to as John, enters his details: 9 passengers, flying from JFK airport
