Why fly on a private aircraft for business?
In an ever-increasingly digitised world, the need for face-to-face interaction is more important than it ever has been.
We live in an era where machines automate a large amount of processes, but business still takes place between human beings – if your line of work requires you to travel frequently, and you value your privacy, private travel is the way forward.
Time efficiency
The old cliché that time is money is rarely truer than when applied to business. Without doubt, one of the most significant benefits of chartering a private jet is time saved – flying private means flying to the airport closest to your final destination, and minimising wasted time spent at departure lounges than flying on scheduled airlines. Being able to circumnavigate long lines for security in busy airports and streamline usual airport logistics, means more time for work, or maintaining that all-important work/life balance.
Productivity
An increase in productivity is often noted by our corporate clients; by offering an environment conducive to handling business while en route to meetings, and minimising the time spent waiting in queues, our clients are able to maximise efficiency.
Flexibility
The flexibility of private jet charter is also a key selling point – private jets have access to a vast network of both larger (international) and smaller (regional) airports not usually served by commercial airlines, getting you closer to your final destination in comfort, including remote destinations.. Flying private also allows for malleability – we know that schedules sometimes change; we can adapt to make sure that we fit your schedule in a way that commercial airlines can’t.
Security and confidentiality
The unrivalled privacy afforded by travelling on private jets assures that sensitive information can be shared freely on board without fear of compromising confidentiality; whether you are a public figure dealing in classified information, or require a space to discuss business strategy in seclusion, private travel can offer the perfect solution.
Team cohesion and collaboration
Travelling as a team can be a great way to prepare for an upcoming meeting, conference, or pitch, but it also provides the opportunity for face-to-face interaction, and bonding between colleagues. We live in a world where technology makes business on a global scale ostensibly easier to navigate, but in-person brainstorming and interaction with colleagues is shown to boost team morale and engagement.
Real-life example:
A client regularly takes a multiple-leg flight to visit three of their production sites, and whilst the airports they pass through are in ‘common’ destinations, they choose to fly private instead of with commercial operators. When we asked them about this, they stated that ‘by taking a private jet, they can visit all three sites within 24 hours, whereas by using scheduled airlines, the same journeys would take a full three days’, concluding that ‘the efficiency of private travel is more than worth the extra outlay in cost’.
Private aviation gives you access to almost every airport in the world, including the most remote locations.
Flying private gives access to new markets, taking you to places where scheduled services don’t usually go, saving both you and your business time.
