Believe it or not it is just as expensive for a company to fly their own private jets as it is for them to pay for private jet charters to fly their employees around. Many companies are choosing to use charters instead of owning and maintaining their own fleet for many reasons these days.
Private jet charters are more accepted by the public and these days with the economy so tight people are paying close attention to the over spending of major corporations. They are scrutinizing those companies that are maintaining their own fleets of private planes for the sole purpose of transporting their employees around. Corporate big shots can fly around in comfort and without public scrutiny by simply hiring a charter jet as opposed to flying their own.
Many companies are also tired of having to maintain and service their own fleets and since the amount they travel is also dependent on the economy many have opted to fly with private charters instead of their own planes. This can save a major corporation many headaches when it comes to travel.
Finally most companies don’t want their employees to fly commercially as delays can cause them problems when needing to arrive in a timely manner to meet with a client or make a big sell. Most companies find that their employees are much more productive after a flight that pampers them and allows them to work while traveling to their destination. This is understandable to anyone who has ever flown commercially as this can be an exhausting experience.
Private jet charters present a good alternative to those companies looking to transport their employees with ease to an overseas destination and can allow for a more productive work week. More and more corporations are using private jet charters to give their budget a break and their employees one as well. This is an exciting new trend and one that many businesses are finding is very cost effective.
