Since 9/11 the number of people looking to
charter private jets has increased dramatically
on a global scale. Businesses are seeking
out affordable and more reliable alternatives
to commercial flights and are finding the
solution in the form of aircraft charter services.
As well as the dedication and commitment of
charter companies they also cite the exacting
and stringent approach to safety and security
as a major factor in their choice to charter
private jets.
The high level of investment into the private
jet charter industry facilitates incredibly
high standards and an increasing level of
technology and sophistication ensures a premium
level of service. Jet charter companies have
to evolve and innovate in order to remain
competitive and provide the most luxurious
aircrafts in the world.
This is a billion dollar industry that attracts
and serves the management and executives from
other billion dollar industries. There are
already over 2000 business aircrafts in Europe
(and over 10,000 in the USA) and it is well
documented that celebrities, Chairmen, Heads
of State, Government officials and Chief Executives
chose private jet charter flights due to their
impressive safety and security measures.
All of the existing private jet charter flight
companies are required by the Regulatory Bodies
of their specific country to carry out intensive
and extensive maintenance and testing to ensure
the highest safety standards are met. Many
companies have on-sight testing and maintenance
hangers equipped with the latest capabilities
and resources to ensure that they meet exacting
standards for operational safety and security.
It is also reassuring to know that most private
and executive jets are less than 3 years old
whereas, according to Boeing, the average
age of a commercial airliner is nearly 13
years.
Private jet charters are usually flown by
an experienced team of 2 pilots who often
devote all their time to flying these particular
types of aircraft. On average they also commit
even more time to vigorous training and re-training
than commercial pilots.
