FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about working with an aviation advisor and about private jet charter.
What does a Vantage Executive Travel advisor do?
Your advisor starts with the mission: where you need to be, who is traveling, and what matters to you. We evaluate the operational requirements, compare your options (on-demand charter, jet card, fractional, or ownership), and then source qualified, independent operators. A single advisor coordinates your requirements, options, and trip communication.
Does Vantage Executive Travel own or operate aircraft?
No. Vantage Executive Travel is an air charter broker. Flights are operated by FAA-certificated Part 135 air carriers, which maintain operational control of every flight.
How much does a private jet charter cost?
It depends on aircraft size, distance, and timing. Pricing comes from the operators: once you share your route, dates, and passengers, we source options from multiple FAA-certificated Part 135 operators and bring you clear quotes. Request a quote for exact pricing.
How quickly will I hear back after requesting a quote?
An advisor personally reviews every request and contacts you to confirm the details and next steps. When options are ready depends on your itinerary and operator availability, and your advisor will tell you what to expect. For a time-sensitive trip, call or message us on WhatsApp.
How far in advance should I book?
Earlier gives more options. Short-notice trips are often possible depending on availability.
What is an empty leg?
A repositioning flight sold one-way, often at a reduced rate, with less schedule flexibility.
Charter vs. jet card vs. fractional: which is right for me?
It depends on annual hours and routes. Book a consultation and we'll model it.
What airports can I fly from?
Private flights can use many smaller airports closer to your destination, not just major hubs.
Will I know who operates my flight?
Yes. We identify the operating carrier before you book. No hidden operators.
Do I need ID?
Yes. Passenger identification is collected after your payment is received, which begins processing your trip. It is provided to the operating carrier and any other parties that need it for your travel.
