Everyone has their own reasons for traveling by private jet. For some, comfort is the main criterion while others prefer the convenience provided by private flying.
Some private planes are preferred to meet specific needs such as short runways. In addition, the distance of the journey as well as the number of suitcases to be transported will play a key role in your choice of private jet.
Each of them has different advantages, so each private jet model will be adapted to your needs.
Whether you are a regular user or a new traveler, there is a private jet model for every type of trip! Our air experts will try to enlighten you on how to choose the right private plane. This choice will allow you to travel in the ideal business jet that will best suit your needs and desires.
What questions to ask yourself when choosing your private jet?
What are your first questions when you are about to charter a private jet?
How far is your trip? Is it short or long haul? How many passengers are on board? Do you have luggage? Is it bulky (skis or golf clubs)? Is it price or comfort that you want to prioritize? Would you like a stewardess on board? Do you want to stand up in the cabin?
Turboprops
Turboprops are aircraft with a propeller engine. They allow you to travel within a range of 1000 km to 2500 km. They are slower than traditional private jets but are more economical. In addition, these aircraft are also noisier. These propeller planes are more agile than others. Thanks to this maneuverability, they can land on runways made up of different surfaces. Finally, they can also land on short runways, as is the case in Courchevel. Thus, they can also land on a greater number of airports than other types of aircraft.
These planes can generally accommodate a larger amount of luggage than traditional private jets. Finally, turboprops appear to be the ideal solution for short, economical trips.

Light private jets
Light jets are faster and have more range than turboprops. They are also more comfortable and quieter. In addition, they also allow access to many airports with short runways. With a light private jet, expect a range of between 1,500 and 3,200 kilometers from the departure airport. They are also faster than a passenger plane.
These are therefore the ideal aircraft if you want to make a business trip on a European scale. They will take you comfortably as close as possible to your final destination. They are also faster than a passenger plane.
