INSIGHTS & PRESS

Private jets are can be utilized in more ways than you might imagine. In this blog we explain a few strategies in which you can use private jets.

Private Jet for Business

One of the most common uses of private jets is for business travel. Although the concept may seem like a luxury perk for only the top-level CEOs of huge corporations, a private jet charter is actually a sensible and cost-effective use for many companies. This is especially true for businesses that require routine travel for business meetings or short notice travel plans with time built-in for work.

Moreover, the privacy created by only flying with your own staff means you can hold confidential meetings while in the air. Most jets contain all the equipment necessary to continue working such as laptop connections, and even Wi-Fi. In addition, if you decide to change your schedule or want to visit many places in the space of one day, then private jet charter is the way to fly. When you compare the timesaving benefits, security, comfort and convenience of flying private versus the commercial, you will find that a private jet charter is a cost effective option for the growth of your business.

Leisure

With the available means, luxury private jet travel can be an extraordinary experience for travelers who are flying for pleasure. Especially for those traveling to remote locations. It can be difficult to access the most exclusive destinations without flying by private jet, since most of these locations do not have the traffic or capacity for commercial planes.

Another convenience that private jets offer for leisure travel is the ability to fly with your entire group on one aircraft. When you fly private, you don’t have to worry about where your friends or loved ones are going to sit on the plane and how far you will be away from them, like you might on a commercial plane.

Air Ambulance

Privé Jets has helped patients that have been unable to travel commercially due to an emergency or serious health condition. We can arrange an air ambulance that contains medical equipment and a nurse or doctor on board. If you do not require an air ambulance, but would like to be prepared in case of a medical emergency, Privé Jets can serve as an emergency contact and fly you on a medically equipped private aircraft to the nearest hospital.

Humanitarian Flights

Private jets can be used to support people and communities in crisis. Emergency relief items such as food supplies, medicine, blankets, etc. can be flown by private jet to those in crisis. Additionally, private jets can be used to evacuate natural disaster victims.

The winter travel season is notorious for travel disruptions such as delays and cancellations. Most commercial airlines will remain grounded during times of heavy snowfall, ice, and freezing temperatures. These winter conditions often leave thousands of airline passengers stranded due to airline flight cancellations and closed airports. Despite the travel chaos that arises during sever winter weather, you can still fly by private jet.

You might wonder how it is possible for private jets to fly during inclement weather, but the answer is simple: more airports and flexibility. Private jets have access to more airports than commercial airlines. This is due in part to most private jets’ ability to land on and take off from shorter runways. If snowfall or icy conditions are extreme in one area of the country, a pilot can decide to land at an airport that is least affected by the bad weather. Also, planes have to undergo mandatory de-icing, and runways have to be cleared for snow. These processes can be completed more quickly at smaller airports and private jet terminals, since there is less traffic and a smaller taxiway area.

If you have ever experienced the nightmare of being stranded by a commercial airline, and if you want to prevent it from happening to you, consider booking a private jet. Privé Jets can have you wheels up in as little as four hours notice on the private aircraft of your choice. So, before you risk being left behind on your next winter flight, contact Privé Jets.
