Chartered air taxi services for great fun in business or pleasure

Chartering a plane can be a great way to travel to an important business meeting or a fun addition to your weekend away. Not only for the super rich, an air taxi service can be a great way to work while you travel or impress your friends.

The decision to charter a plane may come to you in the middle of the night as a wonderful dream, or it may be something that you’ve had in mind for many years. It is sometimes referred to as an air taxi service as it is simply that, a taxi service, by air. And it is in this sense that you should think of this service, not as some wild frivolous luxury that only rich pop stars or football chairmen can afford, but more as a simple taxi service that happens to be by air.

Air charter is essentially the process of renting a whole plane, rather than simply paying for a seat on a plane is you would on a conventional plane journey. They can be perfect if you need to get someone somewhere, or something somewhere, within strict time constraints that perhaps wouldn’t be possible with a conventional aircraft flight.

One of the greatest and most immediately obvious benefits of having a whole plane to yourself is the legroom, or more precisely the freedom to roam. Where in a normal flight you would be cramped and crammed into a small seat with little leg room, perhaps a few babies screaming nearby, someone suffering from air sickness to your left and someone snoring loudly to your right, on a private chartered flight, you can literally have whole plane to yourself if you so wish.

However, it can be far more fun and enjoyable to have a group of friends or work colleagues on the flight with you. Perhaps you have an important meeting in Scotland that you need to get to from your offices in London. You have a few hours to prepare your pitch to the client, and need to discuss it with your team of six other employees in time for the meeting. On a conventional flight, you could attempt to be seated together in groups of three, maybe shouting to each other across the plane, before being told to be quiet by a member of staff. This would most likely result in little to no work being done, and only a few minutes of discussion time being available to you when in the arrivals lounge of the airport.

However, with a chartered flight, you can casually sit together and discuss your pitch with each other at volumes no louder that hushed tones, finishing your presentation to perfection, with enough time for a coffee and some lunch before you even touch down. This shows the incredible comfort and ease with which you can travel when chartering your own aircraft. You’ll arrive unflustered and fully prepared.

An additional use for such transport methods is for weekend breaks or holiday travel. You can think of plane charter akin to renting a limousine for travel to a party; it is an added element of fun and luxury to your event, not simply a method of transport, but an extension of your fun and enjoyment.
