Chartering a Private Plane

Aircraft charters for private jets are available everywhere and there are aircraft available that will accommodate anything from a few corporate executives to the entire board of directors. Air charter services can provide aircraft in light, midsize and heavy configurations with different capacities, speed and range. With today’s strict security precautions, private flights offer flexibility, ease of scheduling and opulent comfort. Jet charter can be cost efficient and a delightful way to fly to airport.

For many large corporations with continent hopping executives, traveling by private jet can be a cost effective business tool. Charter aircraft companies are located all over the world in the major citites and chartering a private jet comes with endless options for scheduling and offers passengers luxury, convenience and impeccable service.

Private jets for hire come in a number of shapes, sizes, configurations and with different speeds and range. There are six categories from very light to super heavy jets. Very light jets like the Cessna Citation carry 2 to 4 passengers, have a cruise speed of nearly 400 mph and a range of 1300 miles. The Learjet 55, a midsize jet, carries 7 passengers, has a speed of 450 mph and a range of 2500 miles. On the far end, the Boeing business jet has room for 50, a speed of 470 mph and a range of 7000 miles.

This suggested rule directly goes after private jet charters, connecting them to the national security rules for all air voyages. If the LASP is accepted, some of the changes will involve:
