Why is traveling by private jet the best way to fly?

Traveling can be a lot of fun, but when it comes to traveling for business, you need another level of travel. A private jet offers you both parts: the fun and excitement of traveling with family, friends or as a couple and, at the same time, everything you need for your business trips.

If what you are looking for is to travel comfortably, at your schedules and not those of commercial airlines, as well as the best service, commercial flights may not be able to provide it. With a private jet, you don't have to adapt your schedule, on the contrary, traveling becomes a personalized way to fulfill your plans. On the other hand, if you travel in a group, whether for business or pleasure, you will have the space and comfort that everyone needs to reach their destination.

It does not matter if the trip you have is long or short, a private flight will allow you to have control of your time and fulfill your commitments. If we also compare the luxury, service and design of private jets there is no comparison. Especially considering that many airlines have not so recent model airplanes that do not offer their customers an ideal space for their destination.

Traveling is not only about flying, it is about living a great experience and that you can enjoy every moment you live even if you are away from home.

Even if we compare the most common means of transportation to travel, we find that risking a road trip can be dangerous, unsafe and with little control over schedules. Which gives airplanes a big point in their favor.

But if we compare private flights with commercial flights, the difference is that commercial flights do not care about their clients' schedules, and offering the best and most personalized service is not one of their priorities.

Although today many airlines have the service of traveling in first class, many people still think that having a private plane has its advantages and is a more comfortable way to travel.

It should not be left out that the maintenance of a private plane can have very high prices. However, according to Forbes (2016), private planes, from their origin have denoted elegance and wealth. The first to take off was the Lockheed JetStar in 1957. It was powered by four 3,300 pound thrust (15 kN) engines. Since then the jets have changed in design, lightness and innovation. One example is the GulfstreamG650 that goes around the world in just 41 hours, 7 minutes.

What Is The Price Of Private Plane?

Forbes (2018) mentions that maintaining a private plane like Eclipse 500 costs 700,000 to 4 million dollars, including expenses for gasoline, pilot, parking, maintenance of the device, etc. However, having a private plane can have many advantages, such as not waiting in huge lines to check luggage, avoiding going during a very long flight in an uncomfortable seat, choosing what you want to eat and not having to wait until it is time. lunchtime indicated by the airline, there are no stopovers and the person decides the time and date they want to travel.

We share some interesting facts about the price of having a private plane.

1.Flying for a single hour on a jet costs around $ 1,900.

2.Parking a private plane costs from $ 3,800 to $ 6,850, depending on the airport.

3.Flying for 200 hours a year costs approximately $ 6,000, just on gasoline.

4.Typically, private jets are priced from $ 3 million (the most basic) to $ 90 million.

5.An exception to the norm: the most luxurious jet on the market today is the Airbus A380. Its price? It is hovering around $ 500 million.

6.The world of private jets moves around 17,000 million dollars a year only in the United States, where the largest number of planes is concentrated (12,000). In Europe, the jet market is valued at about $ 15.8 billion.

Despite this, there are also companies such as, which offer the service of private planes, without having to own one. How does it work? These companies have at their disposal a catalog of aircraft around the world to which they have access through companies that are dedicated to the administration and maintenance of private aircraft. This is a very viable option for executives of large companies with tight schedules, since it offers all the services of a private plane, the person chooses their schedule and the company takes care of having a plane available. Then you can have the luxury of a private plane without the need to maintain it and cover all the expenses that it requires.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
