The private jet has belonged to a niche of celebrities and millionaires for a good long while. After all, the means of travel has long been an icon of luxury, the signature of a rich life that demands style from outfits to air travel.

Luxury can be accessed from a quick google search, redefining the whole process of accessing luxury travel. With the click of a button or swipe of the screen, soon after its buckle up and wheels up!
Promises Unbroken
Many commercial airlines have fixed destinations, unable to change course or the time of take-off. Consequently, there is very little flexibility in their journey, locked into a plan that is easily foiled by factors such as bad weather or slacking schedules.
However, many are drawn to the private jet charters simply because they put the customer first, and may even one-up their original promise. For example, if a storm is impacting the flight path, a private jet won’t delay its services and simply zoom around it and even land at another airport. Additionally, if you’re late they’ll simply wait! After all, you’ve paid for their promise, so the service is assured!
Cheaper Schemes
There is a broad spectrum of ways to save money while travelling to different places. In a bizarre twist, the private jet can be one such method, largely responsible for the boom in popularity.
Cue the empty legs flights, a scheme that plane charter companies offer that allow a discounted, one-way trip back to base. Whether planned long in advance or whipped out at the last minute, the flights fill empty seats so that the trip to refuel or restock isn’t a total loss. It’s a win-win all round, and most of all for the customer!
