There are a lot of great reasons to book a private flight. Whether you’re looking for a more intimate travel experience, or simply want to avoid the hassle and crowds of commercial airlines, flying privately can be a great option. Of course, as with anything, there are some things you’ll want to keep in mind to make sure you get the most out of your private flight experience. Here are a few tips:
Be clear about your needs and wants
Do you need a certain type of aircraft? Do you have a particular budget you’d like to stay within? What is the purpose of your trip? Are there certain dates and/or times you prefer? Having a good understanding of your own needs is important when booking your private flight to ensure you make the absolute most out of your private flight experience. If you’re new to flying private, knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to help you explore your different options.
Consider keeping your group small
One of the benefits of flying privately is that you can avoid the crowds and chaos of commercial flights. You’ll experience these benefits more so if you keep your group small. If you are traveling with a large group, you might be better off booking multiple private flights or chartering a larger aircraft.
Plan your flight schedule strategically
Private flights tend to be more flexible than commercial flights when it comes to dates and times. Chartering a private flight that perfectly fits your schedule is one of the many ways to make the most out of your experience. Whether you’re headed on vacation or you’re traveling for a business meeting, chartering a private flight can ensure you’re using your time efficiently.
Explore your options
There are a number of different types of private aircraft, from small turboprops to large jets. And each type of aircraft has its own benefits and drawbacks, depending on what you’re looking for, so it’s important to consider all of your options before chartering your flight.
Ask about added services
Additional services are available beyond just the flight itself to help customize your private flight experience. These can include things like ground transportation, in-flight catering, and even concierge services. If there is any way we could help to make your private flight extra special, we will be happy to help – just let us know!
Try to plan your flight in advance
Just like with commercial flights, it’s always a good idea to plan your private flight in advance, if possible. This will give you the opportunity to choose the perfect schedule and aircraft for your trip. With that being said, we can still accommodate last-minute private flight bookings. But the more in advance you can plan, the more you will be able to make out of your private flight experience.
Choose your airports carefully
One huge advantage to flying private is that you have many more options when it comes to airports. While commercial flights are typically limited to larger international airports, when you fly private, you also have access to smaller municipal airports. This means you could pick airports that are closer to your departure and arrival points. If you’re unsure about which airports are best for your upcoming private flight, we’ll be happy to help.
Choose the right provider
When chartering a private flight, be sure to do your research and choose a reputable provider. Ask friends or family for recommendations, read online reviews, and compare quotes to get the best value for your money. At Luxury Aircraft Solutions, we are significantly knowledgeable and experienced in the private aviation industry. Our customers’ satisfaction and safety is the utmost priority, and we ensure that all customers have an excellent experience from start to finish.
Make the most of your time in the air
Private flights offer a much more relaxed atmosphere than commercial flights, so take advantage of it! Bring a book, watch your favorite films, or catch up on some work during your flight. If you’re traveling at night, take advantage of the comfortable layout and amenities of your spacious indoor cabin to ensure you’re well-rested when you arrive.
Explore your different pricing options
Your private flight experience doesn’t just include the flight itself; it begins with the booking and planning process. There are several ways to charter private flights these days, but one of the most cost-effective and revolutionary ways to do so is by signing up for a Jet Membership. For a flat fee, members can charter private flights at wholesale costs. Unlike traditional charter flights that include an undisclosed commission, Jet Membership customers have access to lower private costs that are completely transparent.
