Private Fly

Advantages of Private Flights Whether you’re flying for business or recreational purposes, you can choose to travel on private flights or fly with commercial airlines to get to your desired destination. With many executives looking at elegant private air charters as the most relaxed and dependable form of transportation, here is a glance at the pros and cons of commercial flights vs private flights. Private flights have many advantages. While it’s true that private jet can be lavish and pricy, the actual advantages of soaring on a private aircraft are convenience and efficiency. For instance, you can choose to fly out of any airport you’d like as long as the runway is sufficient for your jet, and as long as there are no restrictions. This is a perfect substitute for having to go through a busier airport. This doesn’t only benefit you in a way to avoid all the busier hubs, if your residence or office is around a general public airport, you can simply choose to take off from there, avoiding all traffic. Another example of how flying private could benefit you would be that you won’t need to arrive an hour or even a half hour before flight time. The jet departs on your order. If you prefer a 7PM departure, no need to arrive at the airport before 6:53PM. And if you are running late, the plane will always wait for you. In many larger metropolitan areas, jets take off and land from minor close-in airports so the commute time is shorter. At FBOs, you are allowed to drive your car onto tarmac up to your aircraft, (in some cases without a security check) and get on while the team loads your baggage into the aircraft. Valet services are available to take your

Chartering vs First-Class | When is it more efficient to charter? Lets start with the basics; while first-class remains as one of the most comfortable flying options in terms of commercial travel, first-class travel is entirely incomparable to private jet charter. With extended wait times and airport security and baggage claim, much time is lost simply getting to and from your aircraft. Now of course the level of luxury offered by private jet charter is on a whole different level than flying first-class in a commercial airliner. First-class has disadvantages such as the inability to choose where you sit and of course the lack of privacy due to flying with complete strangers. First-class catering is only slightly more appealing than the traditional meals served to economy and business class travelers. Now that we've covered the differences between first-class and private jet charter we can continue and calculate exactly when it is more efficient to charter an aircraft instead of paying first-class tickets. The first variable in this calculation is time, waiting times for commercial aircraft can take hours whereas the waiting time to get on board your chartered aircraft can be only a matter of minutes. Being able to remove hours from the total length of your trip means that it is not necessary for you to get to the airport as early as you would as a first-class traveler. This is the most important piece of this puzzle. The way aircraft charter works is that you pay for the entirety of the aircraft for the duration of your trip. Now in some situations where one passenger is flying in an entire chartered aircraft alone, the cost of chartering said aircraft is much higher than

One Way Guide: A look at empty leg flights Frequent private jet charter fliers often fly one way trips. The question is: when is it applicable to request an empty leg? The way a traditional private jet charter works is very simple; chartering  private jet means you rent out the entirety of the aircraft for the entire duration of your trip. This means if a potential customer wishes to fly from new york to florida as a one way trip, said customer would pay for both legs of the trip, as the aircraft would essentially be returning empty, and the customer is responsible for all flight charges concerning his/her trip. Now if an empty leg came into the equation, and the customer had enough time beforehand to request an empty leg, he/she would only pay for the one trip from New York to Florida, the jet in question would already be positioned in New York and would need to return to it’s home base in Florida, where upkeep and maintenance would be done on the aircraft. Now if this is the case with private air charter, why isn’t everyone constantly flying uniquely in empty legs? Well, firstly, the amount of empty legs available are never enough to keep up with the demand. A great deal of customers fly round trips instead of one ways, and very few empty legs are left over. Customers whop are flying one ways and paying for the entirety of the trip own said aircraft for the return leg, and lacks the ability to sell this empty leg to someone of his choosing. Only airplane owners and operators are approved to rent private jets to customers. The way that modern day empty

7 Private Jet Charter Tips to help you book and fly on your private jet with minimal hassle. While this may not be new information to many frequent private flyers, it should help those looking for their first chartered business jet flight. 1. Don’t expect the experience of commercial travel Private Jet Charter is incomparable with commercial travel. Never expect the pricing of commercial travel (in some cases with 150+ passengers it is technically possible) though this is rare and most flights are much more costly than commercial travel. The experience is nothing to compare as well, VIP service and catering that makes first class look like a slum. There is no waiting, your aircraft will never take off without you on board, cutting your two hours at the airport to a more manageable 15 minutes or less. 2. Be flexible in terms of aircraft choice Aircraft pricing options are dependant on where the aircraft is located, and in many cases, there is a much better aircraft alternative. If you were for example to fly from Florida to Las Vegas in your favourite aircraft, the Citation X. There is a chance that the closest Citation X will be located in New York, with all of that aircraft repositioning, you would be able to fly on a Gulfstream G400 for the same price if that Gulfstream G400 was located in Florida. Very often, we find a surprisingly better offer for a much better jet for our customer. Everyone wins! 3. Speak up This is a VIP service, which means every one of your needs are crucial. If you need a business jet with a satellite phone and Wifi, that can be arranged. Special accommodations for pets? not a problem.
