If a group of passengers wants to travel overseas on a long-range aircraft\u2014such as a Gulfstream G550 charter\u2014they will have to wait for the crew to undergo the required rest period before they can complete the return leg. Most of the time, that won\u2019t be an issue. However, if the traveling party requires a quick turnaround, the private jet charter cost will increase.<\/p>\n<p>The rules governing duty time are covered by Part 135 and Part 121 of the Federal Aviation Regulations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A pilot or crewmember is logging duty time whenever they are providing private jet charter services in any capacity.","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":61813,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1402],"tags":[978],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61546"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61546"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61546\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":94127,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61546\/revisions\/94127"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/61813"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61546"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61546"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61546"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
