If you want to avoid the long queues and hassles that come with waiting for a commercial flight, you may be interested in hiring a private jet. With a private jet hire, it is quicker and easier to take advantage of a smaller, regional airport and have access to private terminals at international airports. You and your guests will be able to be escorted through baggage check and inspection quicker than on regular carriers. And unlike regular commercial flights, you’ll have the opportunity to decide a departure time that is of your choosing. Hiring a private jet is a sensible move if you are a company executive whose time is valuable and can’t be wasted in long queues.

Before hiring a private jet, there are several factors that you have to take into consideration. The prices for a private jet hire vary greatly depending on the destination, the type of plane being hired, the number of people traveling and whether or not you are planning a one-way trip or returning the same day, or even later. The larger and more well-appointed the plane is, the higher the costs are to hire it. Most private jets seat up to a maximum of 8 persons. If there are to be more traveling companions to be expected, a much larger jet may likely be needed, at a much higher cost.

The prices for a round trip in a private jet from London to Paris aboard a small turboprop plane such as a PA34 Seneca begin at around £1,290 for a day return and £1700 for an overnight. Meanwhile, for the same trip from London to Paris aboard a larger and better equipped Citation II with a seating capacity of 8, prices average at £4200 for a day return and £6000 overnight. The longer the distance of your destination, the higher the costs may be.
