Preparing for your first private jet experience should be something we should all look forward to regardless of our social background because you wouldn’t want to be caught unawares should such an opportunity present itself.
Opportunity loves preparation, and to be prepared means to get ready ahead of time.
If you have flown commercial before, then you have some few adjustments to make to your normal travel routine, and if you haven’t had a plane experience before, the following guide below should get you ready to embark on an experience that should leave you with a lot to talk about.
Dress for the occasion
Dressing for a commercial flight and dressing for a private jet trip is quite different, and for good reason too. In a private jet trip, you are either the guest or the host of the trip. If you are the host of the trip, then what you wear might not be significant since you are the one calling the shots. But when you are invited as a guest on the trip, what you wear has a long way to go with the purpose of the trip.
Don’t be too casual if it’s a business trip except your host wants you to, and it can also depend on the nature of the business to be discussed on the trip. Some occasions call for you to dress as freely as possible but this all depends on the nature of the trip.
Mind the size of your luggage
While you might be allowed to pack your house and its foundations on a commercial flight as long as you can pay for it, private flights won’t grant you that privilege when checking in. This is because private jets are smaller in size, and their compartments and doors are smaller compared to the aircraft used on commercial flights.
You should consider packing light especially if you won’t be the only guest passenger on board. It’s a polite thing to do.
Take note of where you pack your car
Embarking on a private trip will give you the privilege of parking your car close to the aircraft as you arrive. Ensure that you follow all the safety parking guidelines, and one of them will include not parking your car too close to the plane.
There have been cases where car owners forget to park properly only to have their cars roll towards the plane due to its proximity. As long as you are boarding a private jet, you can be sure that your car will be well taken care of until your return.
Have your identification ready
There are lots of privileges associated with private flights, but don’t make the mistake of thinking that you can just board a private jet without proper identification. If you are traveling for an international trip, you should get all your necessary documentation and means of identification handy.
Don’t get too excited or get carried away in the euphoria to the point of forgetting your documents because you are likely to be sent back home by the authorities if you don’t have them.
Prepare to show some gratitude to your pilot
Private jets pilot are underpaid compared to their commercial colleagues, and when you factor in all that they do to make your flight experience pleasurable and memorable such as planning the entire process which in some cases might even involve cleaning the aircraft, then you would know that handing down a reasonable amount of tip to your pilot after the trip would go a long way in encouraging them to carry on with their jobs.
