Evacuation flights, also known as emergency flights or repatriation flights, are flights that are organized by governments, airlines, or other organizations to evacuate people from a dangerous or difficult situation, such as a natural disaster, political unrest, or a public health crisis
These flights are typically arranged when commercial flights are unavailable or when the situation makes it difficult for people to leave the affected area by regular means of transportation. Evacuation flights may also be used to transport people who are stranded in a foreign country without valid travel documents or who are otherwise unable to return home.
During an evacuation flight, passengers are typically provided with minimal amenities and may be required to bring their own food, water, and other supplies. The flights may involve special clearance procedures at airports to ensure the safety and security of passengers.

A charter flight is the flight that is not a part of airline’s regular schedule. it is usually booked by private individuals, business or specific groups. Although they are often used for leisure, business travel and special events, they can also be used for emergency evacuations, medical transport, or government missions. Charter flights can be operated by commercial airlines but are more commonly operated by private jet operators and are regulated by FAA (Federal Aviation Administration)The advantages of a charter flight include greater flexibility in scheduling and itinerary, as well as the ability to choose the aircraft, amenities, and services that best fit the needs of the passengers.
Not always. Chartering a larger private jet with more seats will generally cost more per hour than chartering a smaller one with fewer seats – but beyond that, the only additional charge per passenger is a standard fee (which depends on the type of trip.

Chartering an aircraft means that it is technically owned by someone else. Your booking will not be confirmed until this person approves it. Otherwise, we’ll need to explore other options for you. Most aircrafts are owned individually by one person under Part 135.
Many business jets are wheelchair accessible. However, most of them are larger jets with a straight aisle. The wheelchair will be difficult to maneuver onboard a jet with a zigzag aisle, such as the Falcon 900. In addition, you’ll need a wheelchair that’s the right type; many motorized wheelchairs can’t be collapsed. A smaller, temporary wheelchair will be needed in this case. Smaller wheelchairs are available from some aircraft operators. To discuss your aircraft options, please contact our private jet expert.
Before booking a private flight, take into consideration some factors. This will allow getting more seats available. Accordingly, you will not pay much and have a great customer experience. However, 75% of private charter flights are booked up to two weeks before departure. This may mean that customers only have a few options.
Aircraft burn jet fuel and emit a certain amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. This emission can be offset through one of several carbon offset programmes that ensure private jet customers get carbon credits to offset emissions during the flight. A carbon-neutral flight is a flight that offsets the carbon dioxide emissions it uses through a formal process.
Yes, if they are over a certain age (usually 12-13 years old but in some operators up to 7 years old). For minors under the age of 16 who travel alone, certain rules apply: A legal guardian must complete a Chain of Custody form (listing the authorized contact at their final destination) and this authorized person will have to present (show) identification to the designated crew member before the operator will hand over custody of the minor.

The average refuelling stop takes 45-60 minutes. For smaller aircraft, the stop may take as little as 30 minutes. To speed up refuelling, the operator or pilots can call in advance to have a refuelling truck waiting for the aircraft when it arrives.
Flexible departure times are possible for private flights. Operators usually offer a two-hour window. However, you may ask for a longer window as long as it does not disturb the crew’s maximum duty day or its next scheduled flight.

Many customers wishing to book a return flight to collect gold ask this question; the insurance covers the aircraft and passengers, but not precious metals or precious stones. A separate insurance policy is required for this.
In the US, flight attendants are mandatory on large aircraft and above. While in Europe, flight attendants are used on medium-sized aircraft and above. Flight attendants have separate seats. Larger aircraft and above have a jump seat next to the cabin for the flight attendant, which means that the flight attendant is usually not in the cabin.
Crew members shall have a 10-hour rest period during each 24-hour cycle and the maximum working day is 14 hours. Operators take into account 12 hours of rest instead of 10. These extra two hours allow the crew to have rest and return to the airport.
