Private jets are great resources for many large corporations. They can use them in many ways. It could permit them to fly into very small communities that a larger plane might not be able to do. They do not have to wait for a commercial flight. They select their own schedule, and what city they will fly into. Many businesses like the idea of owning their own craft, but do not need a jet full time. It is possible to buy into an ownership plan where the business acquires a share of the plane. They share it with other owners. They can sell their part at any time. They can use the plane for up to one hundred hours of flight time. They pay an additional monthly fee. It is much like a time share. This is the perfect situation for some businesses.

Unfortunately, because of these different aircraft modifications, there has been a rise in air costs and checked baggage fees. Commercial airlines are asserting to help consumers with these prices, by asserting a one time yearly cost that will cover additional luggage on every flight, instead of buyers paying for extras at the time of travel. Consumer protection groups have lobbied that airlines are required to more rapidly tell flyers regarding flight delays and cancellations. Airline ticket seller can no longer market fees that are not the complete. Marketing for one-way tickets must be more specifically laid out. As a result, there are online services that alert travelers when there is a good sale on flights and are providing innovative methods to track special fares. A lot of people watch dog air fare web sites, are competing for consumer membership. Nearly all of said travel websites provide some type of fare alert service, through e-mail notification, i.e., Twitter alerts, Blackberry apps. In this manner, consumers can now select the routes they wish to track and how they would like to be alerted.

Many people love having their own private aircraft but simply hate the cost of storing them. Some people are finding new and innovative ways to make money on their jets while they are not using them. Due to the advent of “enhanced pat downs” and “x-ray imaging” in cities, more people are starting to look into booking planes. They want to avoid the hassle of dealing with the lines and violation of personal space. An owner could offer services over online classified ads to find “customers”. Another option is to sell advertising space on the side of your plane to businesses. Either way you are having space on your plane hired out. Brainstorm different ways that you can rent out your plane and you will be surprised how fast you will see those expenses lower!

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), sets the baselines for flight regulations in the US. Both types of air flight systems, private and public, have to go by the guidance of the FAA. The FAA rules have been and are presently in place to keep the planes, the pilots and the public, safe in the clouds. The Federal Aviation Administration is within the guidance of the United States Department of Transportation (DOT). The FAA and the DOT, both watch nearest all flight concerns and movements for the safety travel of all passengers on U.S. airlines.
