  • Private Jet vs. First Class: What’s the Difference?

    Private Jet vs. First Class: What’s the Difference?

    Luxury and comfort come at a price. And if you chose comfortable flight, it is worth thinking about who you fly with. The costs of booking first class tickets or Private Jet may vary as they offer a different flying experience. So, what should you take into account when deciding which ticket to buy?

    People who wish or need to have comfort while flying, and who are also willing to pay for it, have two options to choose from: first class or a private flight. What are the differences between them and which one should you choose?

    First Class

    In general terms, Airlines make up for the higher price of first-class tickets than other business class tickets, for example, with a slightly more spacious seat and space around it, 100% service, and a wider range of extra services in the business class category. Still the airlines have control on flight time, waiting at public terminal with other passengers and it’s a regular flight at the last.

    Private Jet

    Private flying completely differs with the array of services which are totally controlled by the customer who is flying. It gives a control to the customer on its comprehensive flight planning services which includes, choice of food, individual care and luxury, and off course a private terminal. Last but not the least, the captain and crew are there just for the customer.

    Waiting Lounge

    Some disadvantages remain with commercial flights even with the first-class tickets. While waiting in a VIP lounge provides you with more comfort than other passengers, you still have to wait for the departure like everyone else.

    In the case of a delayed or cancelled commercial flight, you also have to wait, and the only advantage is greater comfort. In addition, there are other passengers in the VIP lounge, as well.

    On a private flight, you have a lounge for yourself and for any other passengers you have chosen to fly with you. If something unexpected occurs, the captain or operator will handle the situation with you personally according to your and their options.

  • Private Charters, A new normal to the upscaled travel requirement in India.

    Private Charters, A new normal to the upscaled travel requirement in India.

    Hiring a private jet to get from one destination to another was perceived as a privilege reserved only for affluent people. Nowadays, however, many private jet companies like JetSetGo offer relatively affordable trips (in comparison to how much they cost a decade ago). Here is some information on how the private jet hire market has evolved, and what the future may hold in this exciting industry.

    Once the perception, today’s value

    Whilst hiring/flying in private charters is fairly expensive, it used to be completely unaffordable to the average person and is still a perception in the Indian subcontinent. Wealthy business people and top politicians were some of the only people who could use a private jet, and so the market was relatively small, with just a few specialist companies dotted around. However, the price of the private jet flight is cheaper up to 20% than it was a few years ago, a trend that could well continue, and continue to make private flying much more affordable.

    Affordability

    One reason that private flying is becoming more affordable is that there are more private jet hire companies in existence and companies like JetSetGo are focussing more on buying/leasing and upgrading private jets technologically to meet the growing demand for Private Jet travel in India. 

    Transformation 

    JetSetGo has transformed private jet travel as the needs of private flyers are changing. New (and cheaper) competition nearly always forces older, more established companies to have to lower their prices to stay competitive, especially in a market as niche as private jet hire.

    With the market constantly growing, more opportunities exist to reach out to new customers, and there will be no doubt for further reductions in the price of an average journey, making the market more accessible.

    The Future

     

    It is fair to say that technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate, with an incredible amount of innovation has happened in the last decade alone. When it comes to private flying, JetSetGo continues to bring new initiatives both in terms of technological upgrades and responsibility towards the environment. 

    JetSetGo is working on the future of the private jet industry’s growing demands such as “SkyShuttle, A solution to Urban Air Mobility in India” that could shorten journeys within cities like Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, etc. for those who rate time effective as a benchmark in private travel.

     

    The private jet market has come a long way since its inception and is likely to carry on becoming more accessible. With so much to look forward to in this industry, it could well continue to evolve for the foreseeable future.
