Charter 101: Private Jet Travel to the Caribbean

Autumn in the 21st century is a time beloved by marketers. Pumpkin spice, cozy sweaters, vivid leaves – it’s not just the relief from the summer heat that appeals to the public. However, hidden behind the bright exterior is the knowledge that (to coin a phrase) winter is coming. Grey days, bare trees, chilly rain or sleet – we’re headed for the season that inspires daydreams of being elsewhere.

Private Jet Travel for Solo Flyers: Why It’s Worth It


Hell is other people, as per Jean-Paul Sartre – and seldom does that concept seem as profound as at the airport. From scanning the garage for an open parking space to waiting in line to check your bag, to awkwardly juggling your belongings as the guy in front fills up six bins to be scanned, to jostling for a seat in the gate waiting area, rarely does the world seem as crowded as it does when traveling by air.

Charter 101: Luxury in the Air

For the typical airline traveler, “flying” and “luxury” don’t exist in the same sphere. While U.S. airline travel is now far more affordable relative to average income than it was before deregulation in 1978, anything that was once glamorous and exciting has eroded away for the economy-class traveler, who endures crowded gates, cramped seats, limited (and pricey) food options and unhappy fellow passengers. First-class travelers get more creature comforts, but still must tolerate long security lines and unexpected delays.
