Your Summer Checklist For Flying With Your Pets!
by admin on May.12, 2012, under Aircraft Charter, Pet Travel
Pet Jets Travel Club owners certainly consider their pet(s) onboard aircraft as not just another piece of luggage-it’s a family member and they are treated accordingly. Despite the red-carpet treatment that many pets receive onboard private aircraft, pet ownersmust understand that dogs and cats can experience many of the same reactions and sensations that people do when flying, including airsickness, anxiety and dehydration. Owners must take the time to learn their pets’ behavior and to ensure that their furry friends will be secure and calm in the airplane. Before charterig an anircraft, here are some tips to condider:
- Take a trial run. Take your pet on a long trial run in the car before bringing it aboard an aircraft for the first time. Pets needs to be relaxed. That makes it less likely to become overly stressed, which can trigger urination and defecation. Emergency stops in private jets aren’t as possible as they are in the car!
- Teach your dog to sit. Having a dog who knows how to obey basic verbal commands such as “sit” and “down” can be very useful during a flight in the event the animal begins to pace and act nervous during the flight. I you can get youre pet to sit and lay down, this will allow it to breathe more slowly and focus its attention on you and being calm.
- Bring Your Own Water. Some pets are especially picky about the kind of water they drink. If they’re used to filtered water at home, they might not drink tap water offered at the airport or on the jet. Make sure your pet will drink water from various sources or, if it refuses, bring a gallon of his regular water onboard the flight.
- Stock favorite foods. Pack your pet’s favorite food, along with enough of their food and treats!
- Consider carriers. Pet owners must consider how the animal will be restrained during the flight, especially during takeoff and landing, turbulence, or flying with other pets. Smaller pets, such as toy-sized dogs and most cats, can be safely carried onboard in the same sort of handheld plastic crate or canvas bag one would use for bringing the animal onto an airline flight. Larger dogs may require a harness or padded crate.
- Visit your vet for a pre-flight physical. If you have any concerns with flying your pet, visit your pet. This is especially important for an older pet or one that might be quite anxious if this will be their first flight. Dogs and cats tend to be less susceptible than humans to pressurization-related ear and sinus discomfort because their auditory tubes are larger. Also, there is little evidence that they suffer from jet lag because, well, they sleep most of the day, anyway. It’s also a good idea to know the name of a veterinarian in your destination city in case your pet should get sick during the trip and your personal vet could certainly give you a referal.
- Research foreign rules. Do your homework before flying your pet outside the U.S. Information on traveling with pets throughout the European Union, for example, can be found at www.defra.gov.uk. Bring a copy of the pet’s rabies vaccination certificate on any foreign trip. Ask, too, about any regulations governing transport of animals into the country.
- Microchips. If you’re thinking about having a microchip ID implanted in your pet check with your destination country’s embassy to find out which chips are recognized there. Ask, too, about any regulations governing transport of animals into the country. Many veterinarians offer a procedure costing less than $100, wherein a microchip containing a unique electronic identification code is inserted under the pet’s skin. If the pet ever runs away and is later brought to a veterinarian or animal shelter, its identity number can be retrieved from the microchip via a scan. The number can then be entered into a database of registered pets, which would reveal your contact information and most likely lead to a happy reunion. Several companies manufacture these chips and scanners, including AVID (www.avidmicrochip.com), Home Again (www.homeagainid.com) and Pet-ID (www.petid.com).
Fying with your pets in the cabin of an FAA approved air carrier is becoming one of the few options pet owners have as the scheduled airlines continue to ban certain breeds and the growing concern for pets traveling in the cargo compartments, especially in the hot summer months. Pets are members of the family and should fly in the cabin, however, special considerations and planning is required when flying in private jet aircraft.

Aircraft Charter Service – Your Mobile Office in the Sky
by admin on Feb.04, 2012, under Aircraft Charter, Business Travel, Pet Travel
Imagine being able to transplant your office whenever you felt the need. Imagine being able to pack it up and take it with you wherever you went. And finally, imagine being able to take your best workers with you too. Along the way, you all continue to run your business like a well oiled machine—never missing a beat. “Yeah right, that’ll never happen,” you’re saying to yourself. But you’re wrong. This is exactly what you’ll get when you choose a corporate jet charter. It’s your own mobile office in the sky.
Why fly with outsiders?
If you’re reading this article, then frequent travel is a way of life for you and your employees. In fact, you may find that you spend more days in the air than you do at your home base. It’s just the nature of your business. And up to this point, you have been booking commercial flights. Sure, you have probably been racking up the frequent flyer miles and getting some cool freebies along the way, but guess what you haven’t been getting? Your work done.
Here’s what it boils down to: when you are on a commercial flight, you just cannot be productive. You are squished up against other people with little room to work. Spreading out your papers and your laptop are pretty much impossible. Not to mention there are so many distractions surrounding you that you won’t be able to think anything other than “get me off of here!”
Yet a corporate jet charter offers something different. Think of it as your own private conference room. Here you and your trusted employees or coworkers can huddle around and discuss important business while traveling. Have top secret information you need to share? No problem. There are no outsider ears listening in.
The result? You quit wasting all that time you spend in the air. Instead, productivity increases. And when productivity increases, guess what happens to company profits? They soar.
Sometimes you need flexibility—and commercial flights can’t give it to you
How many times have you needed to get somewhere quick and unexpectedly? Perhaps a major client has suddenly become disenchanted and needs some personal persuasion. Or maybe a lead just turned hot and you need some face time to make sure you turn the conversation into a conversion. So you try and book a flight and find that the times just won’t work out for you. And of course, there’s no flexibility. When the giant jet leaves is, well, when the giant jet leaves.
You can solve that problem with a corporate jet charter. It’s the ultimate in travel flexibility. If you suddenly need to pick up and fly you and your team across the United States, all you need to do is pick up the phone, make the arrangements, and you’re off. All the strict rules of the commercial flights, done away with.
Stay productive while traveling
Why waste time? Research has concluded that a corporate jet charter increases productivity. There’s no downside–just profits soaring through the roof right along with your private jet.

Why Do Companies Rely on Business Aviation?
by admin on Mar.28, 2011, under Aircraft Charter, Business Travel
While companies that rely on business aviation represent many different professions and locations, they all have one thing in common: the need for fast, flexible, safe, secure and cost-effective access to destinations across the country and around the world. In many instances, business aviation is the appropriate transportation solution, opening the door to global commerce for small-community and rural populations by linking them directly to population centers and manufacturing facilities. The benefits of business aviation are clear:
•Business aviation allows for efficient, flexible, safe, secure and cost-effective access to destinations across the country and around the world. Because employees can meet, plan and work with each other aboard business aircraft, productivity en route is greatly enhanced.
•In many instances, business aviation is the best or only transportation option available, opening the door to global commerce for small-community and rural populations by linking them directly to population centers and manufacturing facilities. Studies have also shown that business aviation contributes greatly to local economies across the country.
•Business aircraft allow employees to make a trip involving stops at several locations, then return to headquarters the same day. Hundreds or thousands of dollars can be saved on hotel rooms, rental cars, meals and other expenses that would be needed to make the same trip over several days via auto, train or airline transport.

improve customer support. The individuals and corporations utilizing private aircraft in these tough economic times realize that private aircraft remain crucial to
