Not all private charter jet companies are alike and neither are the jets that they provide you with. When selecting a private jet charter company for your next trip make sure to choose a company not only with a good overall reputation but one with a selection of aircrafts to choose from. In order to ensure that you have the best possible flight experience you need to select the aircraft that best suits your needs. Your private jet charter company will be able to direct you to the right aircraft charter for your trip but some of the factors that help to narrow down which aircraft you will need are the following.
- How many people will be traveling with you? You should have an estimate of approximately how many people will be traveling with you as this can greatly effect not only which aircrafts you can choose from but also will have a significant effect on the overall price of your air travel. Typically a private jet charter can hold between four and a few hundred passengers at a time at varied increments so this is an important factor in determining the aircraft that is right for your travel needs.
- How far will you be traveling? This may seem like a relatively menial thing, however many small private jet charters are not designed to travel at long intervals and may not be able to hold enough fuel to get you to your destination, making distance an important factor in selection of the right aircraft for your specific needs.
- What will you need while in the air? Different aircrafts offer different amenities to their travelers. If you are looking to sleep or eat while traveling you will want a jet that will accommodate these needs.
- How much baggage will you be taking with you? While it again seems that this would be something that you could worry about later since private jets are in many cases smaller aircrafts they need to account for not only passenger space but the weight of the amount of baggage they will be carrying as well. They won’t need to know exactly how many bags but they will need to ballpark whether you will be staying at your destination overnight or for a month as this will significantly affect the number of bags you will be traveling with.
