Different Ways to Fly

Different Ways to Fly
By Daniel Pott


Many companies are in need of a private jet. They have important clients and important employees that need to get from one place to another quickly. Sometimes they must fly with only a few hours notice. There are three basic options that a company or individual has when it comes to a situation like this. The first choice that they have is to purchase a private jet or helicopter of their own.

This naturally will be the most convenient direction to go, however it's also the most expensive. The cost of the plane can range from a few hundred thousand dollars for something pre-owned and small, to tens of millions of dollars. This will be open to the budget and the need of the customer for them to choose. Once purchasing the jet, you have to hire a crew and have a spot to store the the plane.

There are quite a few things that go into owning and running a private jet, that is why many businesses choose to use a service which, for a fee will arrange and handle every detail for them. If purchasing a jet isn't the optimal choice or if the need for flying is lower than a hundred hours within a calendar year, you can also find 2 other options. Another option is a flying card which a variety of companies offer.

You purchase an amount of flight time on the card and then can make use of it any time you need to fly. Dependant upon the amount of flight time and the sort of aircraft you want to fly on will determine the price of the card. Typically the minimal hours purchased will be around 20. The nice thing about this program is that all you need to do is fly. There's no need to be worried about any of the specifics of how the jet is kept or insurance or safety. The organization manages everything for you. You simply inform them where and when and everything else is set up for you.

The final choice that you have is purchasing a stake in a particular aircraft. It is call fractional aircraft ownership and is exactly what it sounds like. You but a piece of a plane and with it you get a certain amount of hours in the air. Again, you do not have to worry about maintenance, housing or the crew.
