Private Jet Charter US & UK

Saving You Time

With your own private jet, you fly on your terms - when you want, where you want, without the delays or connection hassles of commercial flights.

You will probably park your car or be dropped off feet from your private jet.
You will no longer need to arrive at the airport two hours in advance and wait in long lines to clear security. With you and your passengers prescreened you are whisked through the pre-departure security checks quickly and efficiently.

With these savings in time you are often able to return home the same day if you choose and avoid unwanted and expensive overnight stays away from home.

With air traffic set to double by 2015 the delays involved in flying with a commercial airline are likely to increase, so the time saved by private chartered flights will become increasingly important.

Your Comfort

Private aircraft can seat anywhere from 2 to 20, but typically will handle 5 to 10 passengers. Most have luxury interiors with customized space that may include conference areas or even a bedroom.

With modern communications onboard you can work en-route, prepare for your meeting or relax in comfort watching an in-flight movie using cabin speakers rather than headsets.

Greater Choice of Airports

Flying by private jet gives you a far greater choice of airports. This often means less ground travel at either end of your journey and no time-consuming connecting flights.

Private jets are able to land at more than 5,500 airports compared to the approximately 450 that commercial airlines can access.

Independent charter broker International Air Charter projects 40 percent growth in air charter business in 2004. The company provides a variety of aircraft, from helicopters and executive jets to large commercial airliners, from its fleet database of over 45,000 aircraft. The company has a regional office in Dubai.

Hugh Courtenay, chief executive of International Air Charter, says drivers of growth in the air charter business include the presence of multinational corporations and a vibrant economy, which generate heightened demand for corporate charter flights. Another key driver is a change in perceptions about chartered air travel.

'Charters are no longer viewed as a luxurious indulgence of the privileged,' says Courtenay. 'It is a very safe and practical way to travel, especially to multiple or remote destinations.'
