There is an overwhelming number of private planes on the market today. Most people who fly private jets do not own their jet, but charter their ride. However, before looking into chartering a ride, a person needs to know what their options are. There are four main styles: executive piston and turboprop, light executive jets, midsized executive jets, and heavy jets.

Piston and turboprop jets are ideal for small groups traveling on business. They are not recommended for people traveling farther distances and are some of smaller jets on the market. Light executive jets provide privacy and are a step up from the piston and turboprop. The interiors are still nice but they are not going to be the highest overall quality. When traveling in large groups you are going to need the midsized executive jet or the larger heavy jets. Both of these are very luxurious and have the space for large parties. These jets will permit for longer traveling distances to your destination city compared to the smaller versions.

Private jets are great resources for many large companies. 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 pick their own schedule, and what location they will fly into. Many businesses like the idea of owning their own jet, 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.
