Nothing Beats The Joy Of Luxury Flying

"Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury." Coco Chanel, "It is impossible to overdo luxury" French Proverb, "Nothing gives me as much pleasure as traveling. I love getting on trains and boats and planes. "Alan Rickman.

Let's face it, if traveling is a must, then always go first class. Yes first class can be fabulous on a commercial flight, with everyone staring as you stop at the front of the plane when boarding instead of having to go towards the back and sit in one of those cramped spaces with everyone else. Exclusivity is always great and nothing says "exclusive" like unapologetic luxury. Chartering a private jet is a fabulous way of separating the ones who desire the good life from the ones who aren't afraid to go for it, no apologies given. But why charter a private jet in the first place and secondly, what do you look for when deciding on which company to charter from?

*C-O-N-V-E-N-I-E-N-C-E; whatever the client wants, the client gets. If the client wants to leave 10 minutes earlier or later than planned, they can ask for it without worrying about the other passengers. No need for worrying about losing luggage or pets, simply bring them onto the plane with you.

*You can't beat the luxury aspect. Big, gorgeous chairs, pretty table settings instead of the TV table set-up and your own attendants there to serve you. And whatever you want to eat, it is yours, i.e., Appetizer, Escargot Mushrooms, Main Course, Cedar Planked Salmon w/Maple Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Bacon and Caramelized Onions as the side dish, Dessert, Warm, Golden Plum Souffle

Privacy can be a deal maker. If you want to spend time with your husband or wife, why not take a trip to Monaco? Sounds great, but wouldn't it be even better to spend time alone on the way to Monaco? Only on a private jet can you cuddle close on a quick flight across the water without causing a spectacle. And some private jets have sleeping spaces so, husband and wife can become even more acquainted...and all in privacy.

What is the 411 for booking one?

1. When booking a private charter jet, a company is supposed to help you make the best decision that will benefit you and your needs, not the other way around. If a company tries to get you to do something you are not comfortable with, politely say no thank you and move on.

2. Always go for the company that can fly from anywhere in the world. When you are spending a good amount of money, you should be able to get whatever you want. The sky is the limit shouldn't just be for how much you spend.

3. Research, research and more research; ask around for reviews and references. How do they handle luggage issues, pets and other lost and found items?

4. Do they offer transportation to and from landing? Search all the amenities the company has to offer. You are spending top dollar and getting everything you can without additional spending is always a plus.
The saying is that "You get what you paid for"; no truer words could be said when discussing the potential of chartering a private plane. Only get the best and leave the rest alone.
