7 Halloween Festivals & Events You Don’t Want to Miss This Year

Halloween is a wonderful, spooky, extravagant time of the year, and it marks the shift from fall into winter. Whether you’re looking for a Halloween festival that’s scary, family-friendly, warm, or wintery, Vault Aviation and our On Demand private jet charters have got you covered!

Take a look at our top 7 Halloween Festivals in the US and try a different one each year!

Festival of the Dead | Salem, Massachusetts

Of course, Salem would top our list! Not only are witches and Salem synonymous in the US, but also this Massachusetts town celebrates Halloween for all 31 days of October, meaning you can come whenever it works with your schedule, not just on the final Thursday of the month.

Enjoy the fall colors, annual psychic fair, their witchcraft expo all month long, or, come for the annual Salem Witches’ Halloween Ball at the Hawthorne Hotel for a real treat in extravagance and voodoo. Flights are overbooked months in advance, but not private jet charters which can get you in and out seamlessly – without all the delays, lines, and hassles.

Halloween Horror Nights | Universal Studios Orlando, Florida

Like the warmth of the South, even in the fall? Then consider Universal Studios in Orlando this Halloween!

During October, Universal Studios is transformed into a giant haunted house with mazes based on horror movies or shows, as well as performances! If you are looking for a group event that’s still (very) scary – then Universal Studios is a great option.

Need a convenient way to get your family or group to Orlando? A private jet charter to Florida is the perfect way to enjoy your trip from start to finish, as well as spend quality time with your loved ones – even while in the air!

Halloween Carnaval | West Hollywood, California

If you prefer warmer weather for your Halloween haunts, then consider a private jet charter to Hollywood with Vault Aviation. We often fly to the Golden State, whether it’s Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Sacramento, or any other area.

But our favorite? Hollywood, of course! Almost half a million people visit Santa Monica Boulevard for West Hollywood’s Carnaval – making this the world’s largest Halloween street party. So, if you want a trip you’ll never forget (and might just return to year after year) then consider a private charter to Hollywood this October 31^st!

Village Halloween Parade | New York City

The village in New York City is known for its parties all year round, but Halloween is a special time to be over-the-top, extravagant, and spooky! A private jet charter to New York City to see the paper-mache creations, puppets, and mile-long parade is the perfect way to celebrate your All Hallow’s Eve this year.

Need the best spot? Get there early with a seamless On Demand jet charter and post-up on 6^th Avenue between Houston and 16^th Street for the best views – and after the parade is finished? Enjoy the amazing nightlife of the Village, or head into central New York City for a night you’ll never forget.

Halloween in New Orleans, Louisiana

If you think New Orleans was only known for one party a year – you are sorely mistaken. New Orleans is one of the most party-happy cities in the US, and they never take the understated route. If you want to stay out all night, see some of the most amazing costumes, and enjoy ‘the most haunted city in America’ then New Orleans is the perfect Halloween destination for you.

The New Orleans Airport has had many difficulties and delays in recent months, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get to the Big Easy in style and convenience! Charter a private jet through Vault Aviation and we’ll help your vacation start long before you arrive!

Sleepy Hollow Halloween | Sleepy Hollow, New York

Don’t want to travel on the actual 31^st, but still want that Halloween spirit? You’re in luck, as for all of October Sleepy Hollow celebrates with haunted hayrides, music, parade, fairs, and festivals to commemorate the Headless Horseman and Washington Irving.

See castles, cemeteries, and brush up on your history and classic reading as you spend a weekend or the whole month in this beautiful and exciting autumn town.

Halsted Halloween | Chicago, Illinois

If you want more of a carnival than a party, then Chicago is perfect for you, as their parade features fire-breathers, stilt-walkers, marching bands, and five categories of costume contests! Not to mention, Chicago has amazing views, shopping, eats, and nightlife.

If heading North doesn’t scare you, and if you aren’t worried about the biting winds of the Windy City the night November begins, then a private jet charter to Chicago is a great idea for your Halloween festivities this year.

But hurry, there’s just barely still time to get to these great cities with Vault Aviation before things get spooky!

5 Reasons Business Professionals Fly Private Jet Charters

Flying private isn’t just for celebrities and athletes – in fact, the most common flyer with the highest frequency of private jet charter flights per year is actually the business professional. But why are business professionals flying privately when they could be flying business class or using reward programs through commercial airlines?

It’s simple, really, let’s go over the 5 reasons that business professionals are choosing to fly with private jet charters instead of business or first class on commercial airlines.

It Isn’t Just Point A to Point B

A fine option for a business professional in New York who has to fly to San Francisco twice a month is business or first class – but how many professionals fit that narrow route? Not nearly as many as we might think.

It is more likely that a C-suite individual would live in New York City, but need to fly to Maine for a meeting, New York State to oversee operations, Oklahoma to connect with their pipeline team, and California to meet with new acquisitions – all within a month (or every month).

Now, which do you think is the best option? Flying from one to the next to the next, crisscrossing the US multiple times on a large commercial flight, flying from crowded airport to crowded airport, and dealing with delays, lines, and inconvenient hours that don’t match with your schedule? Or flying on a private jet charter that is waiting for you on a private runway whenever you need it wherever you need it– no delays, cancelations, and no takeoff-time limitations.

The choice is easy.

Time is Money

Speaking of the lines, waiting, delays, and cancelations of commercial airlines and airports, a private jet charter can save you multiple hours per trip. Vault Aviation knows that your time is valuable, and you don’t have time to wait to check in, wait at security, wait to board, takeoff, disembark, pick up bags, etc.

Instead of wasting hours of your precious time, consider a private jet charter and fly faster and seamlessly instead.

Take a look at this typical example of the time you could be saving on a private jet charter:

Private jet Charters vs Commercial Flights comparison

Three and a half hours versus 6 and three quarters? Again, the choice is easy.

Larger Groups Require Better Options

If it is just you flying, or just one member of your C-suite, and it is a straight A-to-B flight pattern, then maybe business or first class will do – however, we’ve seen that this is rarely the case. More likely, 3-7 business professionals, CEOs, or C-suite individuals will need to fly in unison at times, splitting off and coming together again as they each visit their own properties, projects, and teams.

This means private jet charters, or a fleet of private jet charters, gives your group much more freedom, as well as speed, convenience, and luxury.

Image is Everything

This is an obvious but important point – image matters.

If you want to show your business in a successful light or show up as one of the forerunners in your industry, then a private jet charter is a great investment in your own image and success. Think of how you view personal and professional image in your own meetings. If someone arrives and seems flustered, suit wrinkled, and wind wild hair, what do you think of them, their management, and their company?

Being visually organized, put together, and calm can support your company as much as your pitch. And what better way to arrive, padding your image and keeping you and your team professional, composed, and prepared, than with a private jet charter?

Work & Relax in the Air

Need to start a meeting early or debrief your team afterward? You can continue your work in the air (or relax after a long conference or speaking engagement) even before you arrive at your final destination or home.

The ability to work or meet, even while in flight, gives our business professionals a great deal of value, as they often need to be connected at all times – even when they are 40,000 feet up.

Work life is changing and with our in-flight WiFi, meeting rooms, and both formal and informal seating areas, one of our private jet charters is the best way to get a little extra work in or unwind with your team after a hard day’s work.

The Best Fall Routes & Private Jet Charter Getaways

Do you love the fall colors? Would you rather go on a color-tour than to a pumpkin patch or Halloween party? Then, boy, do we have a beautiful list for you! Vault Aviation’s most recent private jet charter getaway article is all about where to go to see the most beautiful fall colors all over the US!

Need help planning your dates or route? Check out this interactive fall color map here from the Smithsonian to find peak color days for your location or destination!

Enjoy a Private Jet to the Grand Canyon & See America’s Natural Wonder

The Grand Canyon is beautiful any time of year, but in the fall it is especially serene, and the temperatures aren’t quite so scorching. If you want to have time to wander, gaze, and explore without the sunburn and sweat, then autumn is a great time to visit the Grand Canyon.

And, of course, the best way to get to the Grand Canyon is with a private jet charter from Vault Aviation. Start your fall getaway earlier by enjoying the travel, not just the final destination, with Vault Jet.

Take an On Demand Private Jet Charter to Asheville, North Carolina to See the Most Vibrant Colors

Along the Blue Ridge Parkway and near the Appalachian Trail means this little city is nestled between mountains and national parks – which also means the colors here are striking, vibrant, and unspoiled.

Hiking in Asheville is a must, but there are all levels of trails. So, whether you want to have a week of deep-trail trekking, or drive to the top of one of their many peaks and gaze from a lookout point, you have the entire spectrum of choices and options here. Not to mention that Asheville has great shopping, numerous outdoor and indoor activities (like axe throwing), and craft beer, with more micro-breweries than almost anywhere else in the US!

Fly to the Adirondacks Region of New York with Vault Aviation & A Relaxing Private Jet

This region of New York is beautiful all year round with mountains and lakes, forests and trails, but unlike some of the other locations above, this spot is more known for curling up with a book than packing on a 30-lb backpacking pack and living off granola bars and your wits.

If you want a fall escape that that will renew you before the busy holiday season, or if you want to rent a beautiful and luxurious remote cabin and curl up in front of a fire with your loved ones, then the Adirondacks are a great option. And there’s no better way to get to this beautiful destination than with a private jet charter, so you can begin your relaxation a lot sooner.

Take a Private Jet Charter to Denver in the Autumn & Beat the Snow & Skiers

Though Colorado and Denver are some of Vault Aviation’s favorite destinations for private jet charters and trips in any season, the Centennial State is especially beautiful in the fall before the snows come and many of the towns are full of skiers and snowboarders.

Denver offers especially beautiful foliage as the reds, oranges, and yellows take over the many expansive parks. Want specific locations to visit and dates to go? Here is Denver, The Mile-High City’s, favorite colorful fall locations for locals and visitors alike!

6 Reasons Why Millennials Are Choosing On Demand Private Jet Charters

For those of you that think private jet charters are just for your grandparent’s kind of wealthy – we have some news for you! Millennials are actually choosing On Demand private jet charters over other kinds of private airfare – but why?

There are a few reasons why (6 to be exact) that we have seen time and time again in the industry as we work with young clients and startup tycoons.

Let’s go over our top 6 reasons why Millennials are choosing On Demand private jet charters and what it means for the private aircraft sector.

The Price:

Of course, even the wealthiest of Millennials still want to save money where and when they can, and an On Demand private jet charter is considerably cheaper than owning your own private jet.

Additionally, there are no buying fees, membership fees, or yearly hits to the wallet to watch out for. This makes On Demand private jet charters the luxurious, yet economical choice for many private flyers.

The Convenience:

Millennials get hit with a lot of media criticism, but one area where their ‘weakness’ is actually a strength is their love of convenience.

Why is this a strength?

Well, in the private jet charter industry, convenience is the name of the game and On Demand private jet charters take this to new heights! Millennials will pay more for convenience, speed, and enjoyment than other generations mainly because they live fast lives and will pay for the things they value most – like their experiences and time.

So, the next time someone is teasing Millennials for being the ‘now’ generation – tell them they are right and On Demand business models (like our private jet charters) are loving it.

The Speed:

As mentioned above, speed is critical to Millennials, not because they have short attention spans or because they are intrinsically anxious, but because their time is valuable, and they are often spinning multiple plates at once.

If a company truly wants to do well with Millennials, they need to take notes from Netflix, UberEATS, Shipt, and Amazon Prime, instead of digging their heels in and trying to change a generation’s values and preferences.

And that is exactly what the private jet charter industry did with the addition of On Demand charters – brought convenience and time-saving speed to an industry many Millennials were left out of.

The Luxury:

Of course, the reason any flyer chooses a private jet is at least partially for its luxury, and Millennials are no different. Many business moguls, start-up geniuses or digital stars want to enjoy their airtime, especially if they travel often for work, conferences, meetings, and more.

But there is an extra layer of luxury when you choose an On Demand private jet charter over the other private flight options – because you can choose whatever you want to be included or excluded.

From a certain jet to certain guests, food, drinks, or pets, an On Demand private jet charter gives you the control, and isn’t that true luxury?

The Brand:

Many studies have shown that Millennials aren’t as brand loyal as other generations, but this actually is a good thing for private jet charters as they rarely work with just one company to supply their jets. Rather, On Demand private jet companies work with many firms in the industry and use their knowledge and relationships to find the best jet at the best time that best suits their client’s needs.

This means a Millennial client could have a different brand’s jet with each trip, something that some clients might not like but Millennials are perfectly just fine with.

Of course, if there ever was a particular company our client’s preferred to fly with, Vault Aviation could supply the exact jet requested with the exact company as well.

The Flexibility:

We often hear that flexibility is one of the best perks when flying with On Demand private jet charters – but why?

This flexibility goes beyond simply being convenient, or even being able to control the aspects of your flight, because private jet charter flexibility means you can have a small jet on Sunday for your intimate meet up, a medium jet on Thursday to take you to your board meeting, and a jumbo on Friday to take all your friends to LA without worrying about having three jets, repositioning, or empty legs.

Flexibility is something the Millennials value, and so do we, which is why On Demand private jet charters are about getting the exact jet you need when you need it for the reasons you need. Want to change a pickup time, location, even day? You can, because our business model allows us to be flexible and work with our clients to find the best solution and outcome, every time.

Isn’t It Time You Tried an On Demand Private Jet Charter?

Travel Apps You Never Knew You Needed for Your Next Private Jet Charter Trip

Traveling should be a fun experience even if it is for work, because you get to see new things, meet new people, and experience life in a different city. But traveling can also be stressful, and due to everything being new it can make even normal, mundane events more difficult, like finding your hotel, a nice restaurant, or the entertainment you prefer.

That is why our team here at Vault Aviation wanted to put together a list of the most helpful travel apps for private jet charter flyers – from concierge services to finding the best cocktail lounge or restaurant, even vacation options, and resort reviews, our apps have it all.

Check out our 5 favorite travel apps that you should check out the next time you fly with a private jet charter – for fun or for work.

Zagat – for the Foodie

If you love food, then you’ll love Zagat which will help you narrow down your restaurant options and find the one that perfectly matches your needs, mood, or palate.

With all of these search features, Zagat makes finding the perfect meal easy – even if you’ve never been to the city before.

Velocity Black Private Group App

Velocity Black is made exclusively for the elite, meaning, their clients aren’t flying coach. So, if you want to enjoy your trip to the nines, then Velocity Black is the app for you.

Want to go hot air ballooning, swim with orcas, or book an around-the-world tour? Then Velocity Black can help you. They have popups, afterparties, private events, boat concerts, and can book anything for you.

How Safe Are On Demand Private Jet Charters?

Some worry about safety standards on flights – both commercial and private – and often, the smaller the plane, the more they worry. Vault Aviation wants you to have the facts and enjoy your flight without a worry in your mind, which is why we have always been (and always will be) so serious about safety.

Read on to learn the safety standards of our On Demand private jet charters, and rest easy on your next Vault Jet flight.

Vault Aviation Safety Standards

While outstanding pricing and sky-high service are how we provide the very best value to our Vault Aviation family and clients, safety will always be our highest priority.

We live and work by the Platinum Rule, which is: never book a client on a plane you wouldn’t board yourself. We value your safety above all else, which is why Vault Aviation uses a first-rate group of safety-audited operators who comply with ARGUS and/or Wyvern safety standards.

In addition, Vault Aviation only sources aircraft from FAR Part 135 Charter Operators, and we mandate that they carry a minimum of $50,000,000 in insurance and show no history of damage or irregular maintenance.

From light jets and turboprops to heavy cabin jets, every single one of our private aircraft is flown by 2 highly qualified pilots – regardless of if it’s a short flight on a small plane or an international flight on a heavy hitter. Vault Aviation will never charter a plane with only one pilot.

We reach the highest safety levels in three ways: aircraft safety auditing, pilot safety and credentials, and aircrafts charter operators.

Aircraft Safety Auditing with All Vault Aviation Flights

Vault Aviation only charters private jets that are thoroughly audited by The Aviation Research Group US – “ARGUS” – or Wyvern.

ARGUS audits maintenance records, flight history, insurance coverage, the frequency of inspections, and an operator’s ability to exceed the FAA standards. Additionally, they review pilot training, flight hours, and medical records.

ARGUS has a four-tier rating system:

(1) Does Not Qualify
(2) Gold
(3) Gold Plus
(4) Platinum

All of our operators must provide their latest records in order to be cleared for each flight. Prior to your flight, Vault Aviation will request an ARGUS TripCHEQ to ensure that the aircraft, crew, and trip meet all ARGUS standards – making sure that your trip is as safe as it is enjoyable!

Vault Aviation Pilot Safety Credentials

All of the private jet charters that Vault Aviation sources will be piloted by 2 highly experienced pilots: a Pilot-In-Command (PIC) and Second-In-Command (SIC). While ARGUS Ratings are highly important to us, we go a step beyond to ensure your safety and comfort!

Vault Aviation references Wyvern Safety Ratings as an additional layer of protection. Independent of ARGUS, Wyvern allows us to perform a secondary review of the operator, the aircraft, and the two pilots.

The Wyvern Pilot & Aircraft Safety Survey (“PASS”) report details everything from pilot hours to medical certifications. Here are some of the areas checked in a PASS report:

Verification that a charter operator holds a current Air Operating Certificate
Verification that the aircraft being chartered is listed on the air carrier’s Operations Specifications
Confirmation of current insurance for the aircraft
Confirmation that each crew member’s experience meets a specific safety standard
Confirmation that each crew member’s medical and license information is current
Confirmation that the operator has Civil Aviation Authority approval for international operations at chosen locations

The Aircraft Charter Operators

Vault exclusively sources aircraft from FAA approved FAR Part 135 Charter Operators. FAR Part 135 is a set of federal laws governing everything from airworthiness of an aircraft to record-keeping practices.

Operational Control refers to the safe operation of an aircraft during a charter flight. This means that the pilots are in control and all decisions about the flight are made by them to ensure the safety of the passengers and the aircraft.

Under operational control principles, nothing the client says and nothing Vault says will affect the safe operation of an aircraft.

For example, if a flight to Aspen must divert due to weather conditions, neither Vault Aviation, nor the passengers, can override the judgment of the flight crew. This means the ultimate decision rests entirely on the pilots to ensure a safe landing – which is their job, and one they are exceedingly good at (as their Vault-required certifications show).

We Take Your Safety Seriously & We Fly by the Platinum Rule

Vault Aviation’s commitment and loyalty is 100% to our clients, and we have no legal or contractual arrangements with any individual aircraft operators. This means, there is never a conflict of interest or outside pressure.

We don’t have any incentive to put a Vault client on a specific plane from a specific operator, so instead, we have the freedom to find you the best flights, the best jets, the best price and safety there is!

Does it Make Sense to Take a Private Jet Charter Every Time?

Private jet charters are special for some clients and an every-day occurrence for others. But this begs the question of when it truly makes sense to take a private jet charter over other forms of air transportation.

Of course, the numbers are a great place to start, and the numbers for a private jet charter over fractional or full ownership are compelling, to say the least:

Private Jet Charters – Best value for use between 0-500 hours per year
Fractional Ownership – Higher cost for use under 50 or over 150 hours per year
Full Ownership – Higher cost for use under 500 hours per year

But there are also specific reasons for travel that make a charter the best option. Let’s explore these and see when it makes the most sense to take a private jet charter.

Private Jet Charters for Business

Private jet charters are often used for business travel and trips, whether for a meeting, conference, or convention – it is a convenient way for your CEO, CFO, or founder to travel.

A private jet charter saves time, delivers flexibility, and a higher quality of service than first-class or business class, without having to deal with depreciation, maintenance costs, or owning only one plane like you would with fractional or full ownership.

However, one of the biggest reasons that corporate leaders and business professionals prefer to use our On Demand private jet charters is because of the image it projects. It shows success to your clients and competition and is a great way to reward you or your team’s hard work.

Who says traveling for work has to be work? Enjoy the flight with Vault Aviation.

For Vacation

Private jet charters are also popular for vacations, as it cuts down on travel time, lets you begin your relaxation earlier, and gives you more vacation overall.

And even though vacations are supposed to be fun and peaceful, a break from work, they can also be stressful. Vault Aviation and our On Demand charters can greatly reduce the stressors involved with travel, vacation planning, and logistics. Because with a private jet charter, you are fully in control with the flexibility, personalization, and seamless travel you and your family deserve.

Additionally, you get to begin your family time sooner with a private jet charter, as your vacation begins as soon as you arrive on the tarmac. With a private jet charter, you gain privacy, time, and value – all while being able to personalize your trip any way you like. It’s truly a win-win.

For Special Occasions

Honeymoons, anniversaries, reunions, birthdays, and more – nothing makes a special occasion that much more special than starting it off on a private jet charter. The occasion is meaningful – so your transportation should be too!

The luxury that a private jet charter provides cannot be matched even by the top commercial private suite – as they still have to cater to the others on the plane as well. But with a private jet charter, you are the only priority, and your event is the singular focus of your crew and your Vault Aviation team.

For your next special occasion, make it a memorable one with a private jet charter to your favorite city, a sentimental location, or a new and exciting surprise!

Private Jet Charters – Because Your Time is Valuable

When you fly with Vault Aviation on one of our On Demand private jet charters, it portrays a successful image in business, gives you more time on your family vacation, and makes your special event even more memorable.

Private jet charters make sense in many ways and for many situations, as they offer more value, faster travel, convenience, flexibility, privacy, and less stress.

Plus – nothing makes flying more fun than having the entire experience catered to you! Contact Vault Aviation today and Fly Like a Champion on your next trip.

7 Private Jet Charter Travel Tips for the Frequent Business Flyer

Many of Vault Aviation’s frequent flyers use our On Demand private jet charters for business and corporate travel – but that doesn’t mean it’s a chore! We pride ourselves on making flying for both work and pleasure an amazing, luxurious, and seamless experience.

Here are a few of our tips for the frequent business flyer on how to make their private jet charter experience the best possible.

Whether it’s your 1^st or 1,000^th flight with us, read on to learn everything there is to know about private business travel with Vault Aviation.

Carry-On VS Suitcase

Though there are never weight restrictions on your baggage like there may be if you travel commercial, for your own ease, many of our clients prefer to only take carry-ons on their business trip.

Luckily, this doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice space or outfit choices as you can bring two, three, or any number of carry-ons, suit bags, etc.

We recommend having two outfits packed per day of your trip – one more casual and one for business. That way you’ll be prepared and comfortable without having to carry more than you need.

Garment Bags Are Essential

As mentioned above, having a carry-on (or carry-ons) doesn’t mean you have to leave your formalwear at home, in fact, we recommend always bringing suits or formal attire.

However, we also recommend you protect your business outfits by using a garment bag. The beauty of flying private is that you can bring multiple garment bags and there will be space for them to hang without becoming wrinkled.

Invest In Your Luggage

Regardless of if you choose to bring one suitcase, two, or carry-ons, you should invest in strong, stylish, and highly-functional luggage.

If you fly often, then having luggage you enjoy using is important. This might seem a small detail, but with the frequent use, it’s worth it to have luggage that is easy to pack and easy to move.

We also recommend updating your luggage yearly, as frequent use can make its performance slip after 12 months (or even sooner if you are a weekly flyer).

Bring Your Chargers

Many tips for flying say you should always charge all your devices before boarding – but that’s not for private jet charters.

On your own private aircraft, you’ll be able to charge anything you need during your flight. Though you can always charge your devices before the flight if you would like, there is no need to worry about your batteries as you can charge them whenever you need to.

Update Your Vault Team

For the most seamless and enjoyable flight experience, update your Vault Aviation team of your arrival, any delays or changes. We will speak with your pilot and crew, who can, in turn, make any updates needed with air traffic control and make sure the jet is ready for takeoff as soon as you are.

A few words to your Vault Jet team and your changes or delays are no longer a problem – so you can sit back and relax, knowing we have it handled. This is yet another one of the benefits of flying private with an On Demand charter – you are fully in control while still having fewer hassles.

Make Requests Ahead of Time

Remember – this is your private jet for the duration of your flight, this means any requests you have (food, drinks, times, personalization, etc) can be met.

Just let your Vault Aviation team member know what you would like and sit back and relax. We can meet most requests and love going above and beyond. This is one of the ways we make sure even your work flights are still enjoyable.

Want to fly with your team? Your pet? Do you have a specific meal or appetizer you would like? Or maybe you just have a particular drink you prefer – we can easily make that happen for you. All you need to do is let us know ahead of time.

Feel at Home

Our final tip is to feel at home.

This is your trip, your aircraft, and your experience. So, you have no reason to feel like a stranger in your own private jet charter. Don’t feel like a guest, instead, you should look at this as your own home in the air.

Vault Aviation treats each of our clients like a member of our family, and we want you to think of every private jet charter trip with us like it’s on your very own jet – just without all the depreciation, headaches, and maintenance fees.

First Class vs. Private Jet Charters [Who Will Come Out on Top?]

Some people think that flying first class is better, others heartily disagree and think having your own private jet charter takes the cake. But Vault Aviation loves all kinds of flying – that’s why we made it our livelihoods!

And that is precisely why we want to settle the age-old question once and for all:

Which is Better, First Class or Private Jet Charters?

We looked into five areas – flexibility, luxury, price, customization, and time to see who takes the cake, and which luxury air travel will be named the winner of this debate.

First Class VS Private Jet Charters: Flexibility

Private Jet Charters: The flexibility of a ‘private’ anything is one of the strong points for the industry, so you can imagine that this first fight will be quite one-sided. The beauty of a private jet charter is that you can choose to leave when you want, to go where you want, on what you want, and with whom you want. You can also change those plans or your itinerary easily and without the problem of commercial airplane schedules and timelines interfering. This seems to make flexibility a hearty point for private jet charters.

First Class: Though first class offers some wiggle room, you still have very little flexibility as you aren’t the one directing the plane. Even if you’re the only first-class passenger (or the entire first class is part of your party) you still cannot change the planes plans, schedule, of course, because there are hundreds of others in the back who also paid for tickets.

Winner: Ultimately, first class gives very little flexibility, as there are others on the plane that need to be considered:

1 – 0 for Private Jet Charters

First Class VS Private Jet Charters: Luxury

Private Jet Charters: Private Jet Charters are often considered the peak of luxury, but that depends on which plane you choose, as well as the company, amenities, and service. Private jet charters can vary greatly in these luxury areas, meaning that sometimes the luxury of a private jet charter will exceed that of first class (as Vault Aviation thinks it should) but sometimes, unfortunately, it doesn’t – especially with sub-par private jet brokerage companies.

First Class: First class seems to have rather consistent luxury across many airlines, or at least a consistent baseline or minimum required. But there are still always others to contend with, which can drastically lower the perceived luxury. Additionally, the best private jet charter will always out-luxury the best first-class commercial flight. This makes the winning point difficult to award…

Winner: Due to the inconsistencies in luxury in both categories, plus the fact that the worst and best are often private jet charters, both will receive a half point:

1.5 – .5 for Private Jet Charters

First Class VS Private Jet Charters: Price

Private Jet Charters: Private jet charters tend to be the less cost-effective way to travel due to their privacy, luxury, and flexibility. Usually, private jet charters aren’t chosen for their inexpensive price tags.

First Class: First class between major hubs within the US can often be found for under $1,000, which makes them the economical choice for flyers who want a little more luxury for a little higher price. Therefore, the winner seems clear when it comes to price – though maybe not true value…

Winner: First class is more cost-effective for single flyers, as well as non-intercontinental flights:

1.5 – 1.5 for a draw

First Class VS Private Jet Charters: Customization

Private Jet Charters: Customization is another area in which private jet charters shine, as you can choose the entertainment, vibe, food, occupancy, interior, service, and more when you book a charter. This is mainly because you have all the control, instead of the commercial airline having it all.

First Class: First class might have better menu options, but you (again) still have to be aware that others are on the plane, in your section and not, so you cannot have the same level of control and customization as you can on your very own plane – even if it’s only yours for that particular flight.

Winner: Hands down, when it comes to customization, private jet charters are the winners:

2.5 – 1.5 for Private Jet Charters

First Class VS Private Jet Charters: Time

Private Jet Charters: Private jet charters were made for speed – no, they don’t necessarily fly any faster, but that doesn’t mean they don’t save you time. In fact, private jet charters can save you time in lines, security, boarding, taxying, take-off, landing, taxying again, more lines, and even land you closer to your final destination since there are more private airstrips than commercial ones – meaning less traffic, and less time wasted even after you’re out of the airport.

First Class: First class might have more comfortable waiting lounges, but it still takes just as long to get to your final destination. And sure, you can board first – but that just means you wait on the tarmac even longer – that’s hardly a perk!

Winner: By saving you time before, during, and after your flight, private jet charters clearly know the value of your time:

3.5 – 1.5 for Private Jet Charters

What Exactly Is an On Demand Private Jet Charter?

On Demand private jet charters might seem like something of a buzz word lately, but it’s actually everything that Vault Aviation stands for – which is exactly why we created it, of course.

Vault Aviation saw a serious gap in the private jet charter business, and with our previous experience working in the industry long before ‘On Demand’ became a thing, we thought we could do it better.

We wanted to listen to what our clients were saying, really listen, and change to meet and exceed their needs. Instead of being a company that looked first to profits and second to people, we decided to switch those two around and see if it worked better.

And it did.

What Does ‘On Demand’ Really Mean?

Our unique On Demand private jet charter model essentially gives you every benefit that full jet owners experience, but without all the maintenance, exorbitant costs, and depreciation.

With no membership fee or upfront costs, our On Demand program lets you pay for each flight on a trip-by-trip basis. That means you don’t have hundreds of thousands of dollars sitting in your ‘private jet account’, but instead, you can simply pay as you go.

On Demand Charters | Your Luxury Taxi + Concierge

Think of us as your luxury taxi in the sky – or, more aptly, your limo in the sky. You essentially have three options:

Full Ownership: You could buy a limo, but the value of that vehicle is only going to go down.
Fractional Ownership: You could partially own that limo, and therefore only be responsible for part of the depreciation and maintenance, but then you can’t use it whenever you want.
Charter: You could call the limo company whenever you need it, pay for that specific trip, and then have the company take care of the rest – guaranteeing you always have a limo when you want it, without paying for any of the depreciation or maintenance.

No sharing, no depreciation, and no hassles. That’s the beauty of chartering just about anything.

But the difference between charters and On Demand charters is that we take care of everything, not just the flight. We become your personal concierge from your front door to your final destination.

How Do On Demand Private Jet Charters Work?

Essentially, it comes down to the fact that our team at Vault knows a lot of people in the industry, and we use those many relationships to leverage aircraft operators around the world. This means we create a micro-market for each and every charter trip you ask for.

Rather than using some outdated ‘fixed-price’ model that chains people into high prices and lowers personalization capabilities, our On Demand model does the opposite and actually lowers prices by promoting competition on your behalf. And that’s what allows Vault to offer the best market price for every flight we charter.

Our process is designed for ease and simplicity:

First, simply give your Vault Aviation expert advisor your trip details such as needed dates, times, destinations, and guests, as well as any personalized touches.
Second, our experts will reach out to 10 to 20 different aircraft operators for price quotes and assessments.
Third, we’ll use a proprietary process to identify the true market price for the flight and use that to compare.
And finally, after identifying the true market price, Vault will approach the operators to secure the proper plane which aligns with the true market price and your specific needs.

We believe that our clients deserve value, control, and choice, which is why your Vault Aviation expert advisor will present you with multiple different flight and aircraft options. These choices will consist of varying cabin classes and price points, so you can make your own choice and keep control.

Don’t want the hassle? Just tell us, and we’ll use our knowledge to choose a great private jet charter for you that will meet the wants and needs you’ve previously communicated.

And because we’re experts in the field, Vault will make strategic recommendations to help you choose the best aircraft for your trip.

Isn’t It Time Your Private Jet Charter Gave You True Control?

Vault Aviation is all about letting you decide – decide your flight, your plane, your guests, food, times, and more. Of course, you can choose not to choose as well, and then we will take care of everything without you having to lift a finger.

That is what we mean when we say we are your premier On Demand private jet charter. Plus, you will never have to deal with ‘expired hours’ or nonrefundable deposits.

We saw problems in the private jet industry, and that’s why we decided to make private aviation simple and personalized, just like it always should have been.

Our On Demand model gives you the most flexible way to fly privately. And because we understand that every client is different, we work hard to tailor the experience to meet your specific needs – no cookie-cutter flight plans here, ever.

So, whether you fly once a year for vacation or once a week for business, Vault Aviation’s On Demand model is the solution to your private jet charter needs.
