July 10, 2009, Newsletter Issue #131: Air Charters Accommodating To Handicapped

Tip of the Week

In most cases, airline carriers may not refuse transportation to people on the basis of disability. If a carrier excludes a person with a disability on safety grounds, the carrier must provide a written explanation of the decision. Carriers may require up to 48 hours advance notice for certain accommodations that require preparation time (e.g.: respirator hook-up, transportation of an electric wheelchair on an aircraft with less than 60 seats). Carriers may not limit the number of disabled persons on a flight. Before booking your private aircraft charter service, check with your charter consultant to ensure handicap accessibility is available on the planes you're using.

SkyCard members are automatically registered in the rewards program when they buy a SkyCard, and receive five points for every dollar they spend. After enrolling, charter customers receive one point for every dollar spent.

Members can then shop on-line for special gifts and merchandise from companies such as Callaway Golf, Movado, Coach, Nautilus Home Gyms, Samsung, and Bang and Olfsen. Over 2,200 high-end, luxury products are offered.

Blue Star Jets plans to add several thousand more options over the next year, from luxury vacations to access to exclusive events taking place around the world.

A reward program is a nice incentive, but there's more to picking a good on-demand charter broker. Helium Report's Decision Guide to Private Jet Travel shows you all the factors to consider - such as safety, call-out periods, crew quality and so on.
