By Private Jet Charter To The Ski Slopes


Using a private jet charter is always a good idea because it is fast, convenient and not as pricey as most may think. It could be a business meeting in Zurich or New York on Monday or a conference in Geneva or some other European city. Maybe you decide on simply spending a luxury holiday at any of the Swiss ski resorts by next week. Very often tight agendas and the tedious and time-consuming hassle on airports make the wealthy and privileged rather spend the money than their precious time.

The closeness of airstrip to ski slopes means that private jet users can come on weekends without being in a hurry. Consider somebody coming from England for a weekend of skiing in the Swiss Alps.

It takes a little more than 90 minutes from Farnborough Airport which has its facility dedicated exclusively to business aircraft to fly to Samedan, Sion or any other small Swiss airport. The same is true for travelers from other European countries heading to Switzerland with a private jet charter. If you try that on a regular scheduled flight and it would take you at least nine hours.

The fear of further attacks and the feeling that private jets guarantee safer traveling boosted the business of private jet charter after the 2001 disaster in New York. Today, those fears may have passed a bit and people are using scheduled flights again, if they provide the right services.

Ever since that time, the remaining additional security checks are just a nightmare and keeps people stuck on airports for hours. For some, it is too much valuable time last. Instead of waiting for two hours for check in on a scheduled flight, it takes you only a few minutes to be on board on a private jet charter. It is actually not so much a question of procedures but of serving the masses.

The security regulations are really the same in business aviation, but special business aviation terminals have a lot less passengers to deal with and are therefore quicker. It is not just that check-in and boarding your plane is within 15 minutes on a private jet, but as you already know, you also get more security, privacy, time saving and much more flexibility.

One of the companies that High-end travel Switzerland highly recommends is Swiss Private Aviation, formerly Servair. This Swiss private jet charter company is in business since 1981and offers a variety of types of aircraft. Since the acquisition, it has become a fully owned subsidiary of Swiss International Air Lines AG. Depending on aircraft availability, short-haul flights within Europe can normally leave within an hour. Long-haul flights to North America, North Africa and the Middle East take two to three hours time for the crew to get ready. It is a fast expanding company, which customizes the services to their clients' needs, almost without restrictions of their fleet and possibilities.

They operate the comfortable and fast Gulfstream G-IV and G-V, Citation Excel and the Falcon 2000 that seats from 7 to 13 passengers up to 8,800 km non-stop to more than 3500 airports. Due to high demand, the company is in the process in acquiring more aircraft.

Aircraft Management Support

If you have the means to buy or charter your own jet than of course, they will treat you preferentially and individually. Switzerland is a very attractive place to have jets registered and managed. This means, that the Swiss Cross on its tail is still appealing and helps you to get access for over-flight or landing permissions. The company offers excellent Aircraft Management Support to operate your aircraft efficiently, to control costs and to keep a certain degree of privacy.

So next time you need to come to Switzerland to a business meeting or are planning for a ski vacation, consider Swiss Private Aviation. Besides the time that you save at the airport, you also avoid a lot of hassle because you are taking off from special business aviation terminals.

This licensed private charter operator has offices in Zurich and Lugano. The company provides excellent service in a friendly way. The very professional trained flight crew meet the high standards that are important to serve their guests.
