Envision a winter getaway to Vail, Colo., with seven of your closest girlfriends. Skiing white powder slopes, enjoying cozy dinners and spa treatments, talking and laughing late into the night. Now imagine traveling via private jet – you leave and return on your schedule, check in only 20 minutes before takeoff, and avoid the hassles of security, changing planes, delayed flights and lost luggage. Throw in limousine pickup on both ends and catered in-flight dining to your specifications, including, of course, champagne toasts.

The four-hour flight means you have time to hit the slopes – or the hot tub – by midday. On the return date you can get in a full day of skiing before heading to the airport for an 8 p.m. flight – or whatever time you wish.

Private Jet Charter can make that travel itinerary a reality for $45,000 (eight passengers, including limousine transfers and catering).

For more than 21 years the company has been arranging custom flights to the Colorado ski slopes or to destinations around the world.

“If you can dream it, we can make it happen, from your dream family vacation to your most romantic getaway,” says Lori Kennedy, private aviation manager at the North American headquarters in downtown Fort Lauderdale.

The company can facilitate any flight plan on a wide variety of private aircraft, she adds, and the 24/7 team works with concierges around the world to make arrangements on the ground.

Beyond creating lifetime memories for vacationers, Private Jet Charter serves travelers for all reasons.

“We fly the entertainers of the world, we work with sporting teams, with executives who want to hit several meetings in one day, and with families, of course. We have even flown a pair of shoes forgotten by a model to Paris for a fashion show,” Kennedy says.

“Whatever the need is, the jet awaits.”
