If the statistics above haven’t convinced you, we’ll take a deeper look into the ins and outs of flying private. Flying private is not only a shortcut to your destination but also a shortcut to the hassle of airports. Skip check-ins, public baggage checks and boarding queues as you enter the plane through your very own private entrance.
It’s a light jet, perfect for an operation in Europe. You can arrive late at the gate, 15 minutes before the flight, and the captain picks you up. It’s a private operation and it is very economical with low fuel consumption and you have more privacy.
Flying private will also allay any biosecurity concerns, with a team of staff dedicated to your travels. Devoted pilots and air hostesses will ensure your journey is entirely catered for. So, why not put your feet up, order that glass of champagne and enjoy the view from your entirely private jet as you touch down in Nice.
