What Are Some Advantages of Using Smaller and Private Airports for Airplane Charter Travel?
Smaller and Private Airports for Airplane Charter Travel
There are some important advantages to using nonhub and smaller airports for the airplane charter travel executive. There is also one caution to consider. Not all privately owned airports are available to private plane fliers. Some private airports are available for public use while others are truly private. At these, even emergency landings must receive approval from the owner – not typically a useful option, as you can imagine.
Among the many benefits to private aircraft users of smaller facilities:
- Privacy. Depending on the reasons for your trip, private flights are completely private. Your departure and landing schedule, number and identity of your traveling companions, trip purpose, and final destination are all hidden from public view.
- Security. At nonhub commercial airports, there are many fewer travelers, lessening the risk factor of encountering someone with evil intentions. At privately owned/publicly used airports, almost all traffic is private aviation. The private jets using these airfields are typically occupied by others like you. Any risk factors are greatly diminished for obvious reasons.
- Number of choices. While you are restricted to around 500 airports with commercial airlines, the menu of smaller and private facilities approaches 5,000 choices. Most often, you can locate a smaller airport much closer to your intended destination, which reduces both the time and aggravation factor when going from a terminal to your living or meeting location.
