There is an overwhelming number of private aircraft 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 great for small groups traveling on business. They are not recommended for people traveling long 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 provide for longer traveling distances to your destination airport compared to the smaller versions.

Air travel is currently undergoing changes and will continue to change. U.S. security and safety is always the commercial air travel and private air hire, carriers main goal.

Most business people today are able to enjoy the convenience, flexibility and security that are achieved in a private jet or chartered flights offer for individuals. The amount of time that people spend on these flights can be very much productive, especially if you are traveling in a group for an important event or meting. The time that is spent together helps the entire staff to discuss more about the particular event and share their thoughts before getting to the destination airport. Normally when you travel in a commercial airline you are intruded with all those people sitting around you, sometimes it goes beyond what one can bare concerning the noises of people talking. Likewise, your co-passengers will also not like it if you are discussing something with your group mates, although they are not going to understand that you are just making use of time. Another advantage with private aircraft is not having to worry about losing the luggage at all.

Having a private jet aircraft was once reserved for oil barrens, business moguls and rock and roll bands. A private jet is expensive, it requires continuing maintenance, pilot salaries are high and federal hoops are in place to jump through concerning airworthiness and safety regulations. For individuals and even many corporations, the cost of buying and maintaining a private jet is out of reach and not cost effective. A viable alternative may be private jet charters.

Private jets are great resources for many large corporations. They can use them in many ways. It could enable 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 choose their own schedule, and what location they will fly into.

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.
