If you frequently travel for business then you know that it is not always a comfortable or easy process and can actually be stressful. With flights being delayed or uncomfortable you can be left feeling tired and disappointed. This is the last thing you need if you are travelling for an important business meeting.
But it does not have to be this way. Executive travel is changing and becoming more accessible. There are many different options for travelling with more comfort for you ad your business colleagues.
Ask for an upgrade
Don’t be afraid to ask for an upgrade, of course they could always say no but what have you got to lose? Dress well, be nice and smile sweetly and a please might just do it you never know. Kindness pays, so pay it forward with interest and you could be in first class in the blink of a smile.
Your flight may only have one or two upgrade places available, so maximise your chances of bagging them by rocking up at check-in at least 5 hours before the scheduled departure.
Empty Leg Charter Flights
Every time a private jet is booked for a one-way flight, an empty leg becomes available for the return journey. This is because an aircraft must fly empty to return to its previous destination and pick up its next set of passengers. This means that by booking wisely you could save up to 75% on the cost of a conventional private jet charter.
Empty Legs are flights where the departure airport, destination airport and time of departure are pre-defined. Perfect for short notice leisure trips, a private jet empty leg is the best value way to fly VistaJet.
Europe’s private jet traffic see a significant peak in the summer, so there are many more empty leg flights available, and amazing deals to be had.
Also, ‘One Ways’ are jets available to charter near you within a specified time window for a reduced price so you can take advantage of this.
So in the future when you are travelling for business don’t settle for a poor service at a bad price when you could be traveling in luxury and comfort for less than you might have previously imagined. Why not you step onboard your own private jet instead for the same or even less than the price of an airline flight?
