Critical Guidelines for Hiring a Private Jet

Critical Guidelines for Hiring a Private Jet | The Early Air Way's BlogAre you ready to embark upon your next adventure in the comfort of a private jet, charted by an expert pilot and designed for your highest desires?

If this sounds like your idea of a dream getaway, here are some guidelines to keep in mind when choosing a private jet charter for your honeymoon, glamorous family vacation or exclusive business meeting.

A Reputable History

Unlike other airline passengers who need to find the least expensive tickets and travel plans, you need to focus on the history of the jet charter. This can be done by researching the company through their website. Many chartering companies will also feature client testimonies along with any awards the charter has received over the years. You can also request to see safety and accident reports from past flights. Additionally, ask about rankings from WYVERN and ARG/US, as these will provide a true representation of the charter flight’s legality and history of secure travels.

Amenity Choices

Another factor that may impact your decision in choosing a private jet charter is the type of guest amenities they provide. If you do not see a service you were hoping to enjoy, it is best to talk with a representative from the jet company. Items to discuss with your flight planner may include:

  • Food service
  • Lighting and music selection
  • Departure and landing times
  • In-flight entertainment
  • Client space for eating, sleeping and working

Any charter not willing to accommodate your in-flight wishes should be removed from your list of potential jets. The professional and experienced charter companies will do whatever it takes to make sure your flight is everything you dreamed it would be, and more.

Aircraft Age

One final feature to keep in mind is the age of the aircraft you may be flying on. If the private jet is older than 20 years, you should request a newer model. Avoiding older jets will provide you with a safer flight free of uncorrected mechanical problems, outdated technology and damage from previous flights. If you wish to fly in a vintage plane, just make sure it has been properly maintained and routinely checked for wear and tear.

Investing in a private jet charter for your next rendezvous in paradise or business conference can be well worth your time and money. Following these guidelines and asking questions will reward you with a personalized and high-class flight wherever the sky takes you.
