Private Jet Charter

It’s a bird, it’s a plane…no, its a VLJ. Well, technically VLJs are planes, but they are in a class all their own. VLJ’s – aka: very light jets, microjets, personal jets, minijets – are a hot topic these days. Looking like something out of “The Jetsons”, these super-sleek, super-economical jets have created a new category in the private aircraft industry and are eagerly anticipated in the charter world. So what’s all the fuss about? Well, VLJ’s cost much less than small cabin jets, which will open the world of private aviation to a larger segment of the market. Also, since they can easily takeoff and land at small local airports, they allow travelers to avoid high-volume airports and arrive closer to their destinations.

“So what’s the catch?” the savvy jet traveler may ask. Well, despite their efficiency and flexibility, their nickname ‘minijet’ aptly describes most VLJ cabin interiors. Snug is the word, although cabin interior can vary based on the specific jet sub-category (ie: single-engine, small-cabin, large-cabin). Also, with its limited in-flight services and performance, VLJ flights are best kept to a couple of hours at most, with no more than 4 passengers. However, for short, direct flights to and from smaller airports, VLJ’s may be the jet for you. And with the ease of flying privately, business travelers in particular may find VLJS an attractive option over first-class.

The saying “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” holds true in life as well as in private air travel.   A good pilot will prepare for unexpected events by planning alternate options prior to every flight.   They will take into account many factors including weather, fuel, airport runway lengths and the weight and balance of the aircraft.  The pilot will call a certified weather briefer, estimate the weight of the passengers, fuel and baggage and research appropriate flight charts to collect this information.

Once the route is planned, the pilot will research alternate airports and routes.  For example, if the headwinds are stronger than predicted and an alternate destination airport is required, the pilot will be prepared with the necessary charts, radio frequencies and airport information on hand.

What does this mean for you, the private air travel customer? Unfortunately, route changes often come at the expense of your time.  For instance, when a pilot is not comfortable with the weather prediction at your desired airport, or recommends a fuel stop to ensure enough range in your flight route, this can certainly cause an inconvenience. However, when it comes to air travel, one should always put safety before convenience.

Almost every company in the private air industry claims to have the best safety standards. But how can a customer really determine what defines high standards?  Below is a general guideline to consider when working with any private jet provider.

FAA Documentation
A charter company must have a valid FAA Part 135 air taxi certificate which authorizes it to fly for hire.  Sometimes companies attempt to fly under the less strict Part 91 regulations.  These rules have far less FAA oversight, and as a result, the liability of the passenger is increased.  Therefore, it’s important to ask for a copy of the FAA air taxi certificate, and under which regulations your flights will be flown.

Insurance
Insurance can provide a great deal of information about a charter company.  Typical limits are $25mm for a small jet, $50mm for a mid-sized, and $100mm for a large jet. Along with the FAA certificate, prospective flyers should ask for proof of adequate insurance.

Third-party Verification
Essential data about the aircraft operator can be obtained from an industry auditing company. One leading company in this field is Aviation Research Group (ARG/US). A charter customer should ask their private jet provider for an ARG/US TripCHEQ prior to booking.    

Pilot Experience
Does the provider have minimum standards for pilot hours? Are the assigned pilot’s hours verified prior to the flight? Both answers should be yes- pilot hours are verified time that a pilot has spent operating an aircraft. It is an indicator of experience, and is easy to obtain. In addition to the audit rating, prior to every trip, the private jet provider should verify the assigned pilots’ flight hours on the specific jet type.  

Operational Control
This is an essential aspect of safety, yet knowing whose jet you’re flying on isn’t always clear-cut.   Many customers book a private jet through a well-known jet provider, but are placed – without knowing it – on a small independent one they know nothing about.  If outsourcing occurs, your private jet provider should be able to ensure that the operator who maintains operational control meets high safety standards.

Traveling on a private jet means you save time and energy. Its hassle-free and a much more productive and stress-free way to fly. It puts you in control. Private jet charter services have made it very easy for people to organize instant business trips. Especially for business tycoons, jet charter travel is of great importance. There are several advantages of hiring a private jet:

Scheduling
You are the boss here. Your aircraft would leave when you decide. The main advantage of hiring private charter flights is the freedom of scheduling. You can plan out the entire schedule according to your business needs and fly at any time you want. You can also alter the schedule if required.

Time-Saver
For business community time is money. Wastage of precious time means loss of millions. Normally, traveling by a commercial airline lead to a great wastage of time due to delayed or cancelled flights. On the other hand with private jet charter services you save time reserving tickets, registering, making queues for security, getting the luggage etc. In short, you avoid delays and save a lot of precious time.

Size
Here you are the king. You choose the private air charter service which suits your needs. You can choose from a variety of aircrafts like light jets, midsize jets, super mids, jumbo jets or even helicopters according to your requirements, i.e. seating capacity, speed of travel, etc. Now that’s the luxury you will never get when traveling on commercial flight.

Additional Facilities
A private air charter service also ensures that you get excellent gourmet meals, ground transportation facilities and return services to make your trip convenient and memorable. You dictate the needs here. You can also demand specific items to be served on board like vegetarian meals or a certain drink.

Added Security
The most important benefit of private jet charter services is that you get a high level security. It’s hassle-free. You don’t need to stand in a queue to get through the security area. No need to worry about luggage loss. You get high level of comfort, privacy and security.

Choose your Airport
With private jets you get the facility of choosing the airport you want to land in. You can decide to land in a less crowed airport, where you can save your precious time in car and ground transportation.

A private jet charter service ensures that its customer service personnel are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to meet client’s demands. It provides corporate, executive and independent travelers with top level security, comfort, privacy and flexibility; which is not available in any other mode of transportation.

Probably that’s why more and more corporate houses are now beginning to prefer private jet charter services to regular commercial flights to ensure their people reach the right place at the right time with minimal hassles and fatigue.

High traffic is inevitable at private airports during popular events or holiday seasons (think Super Bowl or winter in Aspen). With that in mind, we have put together some information and helpful tips to ensure that your private jet travel to bustling airports is both relaxing and stress-free.

“What is an STMP?”   Special Traffic Management Programs (STMP’s) are implemented for special events that attract thousands of people and aircraft to participating airports. The FAA requires users to make arrival and departure reservations to and from these airports to manage the flow of arrivals and departures for these events.   

“What is a slot time?”   Slot times refer to airports expecting high traffic volume due to special events or seasonal activity. Slot times are issued to stagger incoming flight traffic in order to relieve air traffic control duties. Slot time reservations are typically available 72 hours prior to the estimated time of arrival.

Private Jet Travel Tips:
•  Be flexible with your departure time requests. Allow a window for departure times. Slot times will not be assigned more than 72 hours in advance to the flight departure request.     
•  Avoid changing flight dates & times.  Slot times are valuable and go quickly, so try to stick to your flight schedule to avoid conflicts.
•  Arrive on time.  Particularly in mountainous areas, weather can change rapidly. The closer you leave to your intended time, the better opportunity you have to guarantee your arrival time. So if your slot departure is 8am, please allow time for boarding so the jet will be ready and in position for an 8am departure.

Can’t bear to leave the family pet in a kennel and don’t want your trusted companion stuck in commercial’s cargo section?   No need to worry.   One benefit of private jet travel is the opportunity to take the pride and joy of the family with you in the main cabin.    

Despite the fact that pets are often considered members of the family, the FAA classifies pets as cargo.   Generally this means they must be appropriately secured, most commonly in an animal carrier, during takeoff and landing for the safety to themselves and others.   International travel poses additional procedures and restrictions, and these may differ from one country to another.     

Prior to booking your flight, inform your charter operator if you plan to travel with your pet.   They can check if there are any restrictions or requirements and ensure that the jet can accommodate your pet.  

Some Helpful Tips:
•  If using a travel carrier for the first time, give your pet at least a month prior to your flight to become familiar with the carrier to minimize his or her stress during travel.
•  Talk with your veterinarian about prescription tranquilizers if you are considering sedating your pet during travel.   Make sure to specify it is for air travel.   
•  Bring along a confirmation of your pets immunization (to verify a clean bill of health).

Private jet planes are the new status symbol to show that you are one of the richest people in the world. Everyone seems to be buying private jets now. All of these jets are being completely gutted and redone inside and out. Not too long ago, it was a big deal for a person to own a small propeller plane with about ten seats in it. Now many very famous and rich people are buying large jumbo jets and turning them into hotels and clubs in the air. I think that the movie Soul Plane helped to shed some light on and poke some fun at this growing trend of “pimping” out private jet planes. This movie went a little overboard on the types of accessories that most people would put in their private jet plane, but it also showed some of the things that people actually do have in their private jets.

There have been many news stories about celebrities buying private jet planes for millions of dollars, and then spending two or three times more to get the planes designed and furnished exactly the way that they want them. Most of the time in these large jumbo jet planes, the seating will be completely removed, and other amenities will be put in their place. Some of the time the seating in the plane goes from three hundred to about twenty five. However the twenty five seats that are still available are usually recliners or sofas, which will make any trip much more enjoyable. Also these private jet planes usually have some sort of bedroom, maybe a bar, and sometimes even a dance floor built-in. Others have a dining table, many televisions, chandeliers, and other accessories to make the private plane feel like home.

Personally, I believe that all of this extravagance is a bit too much, but I think that people should be able to spend their money in whatever way they see fit. So if anyone out there would like to invite me to take a ride on one of these over extravagant private jet planes, I think I would not have a problem saying yes, and go along for the ride. Anyone wanna make me an offer?
