Find the right private jet for your journey

Here are some of the key words and phrases we use in describing various types of private aircraft:

Passengers (typical): The number of people that can comfortably be seated on the aircraft. Sometimes, aircraft of the same type will seat more or fewer passengers depending on the configuration. We will be able to confirm this information at time of quoting.

Cabin Dimensions: The length, width and height of the passenger cabin are provided to give you an idea of how much living space you have and whether or not you can stand fully upright. Each aircraft type is different. Turboprops generally have the smallest cabin but are intended for short flights, while Large Cabin Jets and Airliners, with their ability to fly farther, will have the greatest amount of space.

Baggage total: The total baggage capacity of the aircraft as measured in cubic feet. There could be multiple compartments on the aircraft, including some inside the cabin that are accessible during flight. Please note that private jets do not have overhead stowage compartments typical on commercial aircraft. There is commonly space nearby to lay belongings on, and your crew can assist you with stowing any items prior to flight.

Average Cruising Speed: The average speed at which the aircraft typically travels through the air, as measured in Knots True Airspace (KTAS). To convert, 1 knot = 1.852 kilometres per hour, or 1.15 miles per hour.

Max Cruising Altitude: The maximum cruising altitude of the aircraft measured in feet. You may or may not get to this altitude during your flight - the decision is up the pilots, who factor in aircraft operating characteristics, as well as weather and air traffic.

Full Passenger Range: A measure of how far the aircraft can travel with its typical full passenger load, measured in nautical miles (NM). To convert, 1 nautical mile = 1.852 kilometres, or 1.15 miles. The aircraft range figure provided in this section may not always be 100% accurate, and will vary based on operating considerations that are unique to each flight.

Lavatory: The availability of a lavatory on-board the aircraft is noted. "Limited" usually refers to a simple toilet with partial privacy (usually a curtain) on smaller aircraft that otherwise might not have one at all due to space constraints. Standard provisions on most private jets are fully enclosed and have a vanity, sink, and other amenities.

Galley: The availability of facilities designated to store, cool and/or heat food and beverages for consumption on-board. Most types of private jets will have a refreshment area including an ice bin to keep drinks cold. A partial or full galley on larger aircraft commonly consists of several storage compartments, an oven (microwave and/or convection), fridge, coffee and/or espresso maker. It is always best to check with us regarding the availability of glassware and flatware on either midsize, light jets, or turboprops.

Wi-Fi availability is aircraft specific and availability will be noted in a quote.

FBO (Fixed Base Operator): An FBO is a private terminal at an airport that provides services for private aircraft and passengers including lounges and ground transportation. It ensures a seamless and comfortable experience for private jet passengers and crews.
