Hiring an air charter broker will save you time, money and stress in these important ways:<\/p>\n
We build strong relationships.<\/strong> An air charter broker such as Stratos Jet Charters has developed relationships with air charter operators both in the US and internationally. These relationships allow a broker to secure significant discounts compared to standard market rates.<\/p>\n We know aircraft types and airport services.<\/strong> You could arrange a jet charter flight yourself, but it involves knowing which type of aircraft is best for your needs, where to fuel (and refuel) it, and where the ideal runway is for your arrival and departure. Stratos private flight advisors have that information at their fingertips and can explain the best options.<\/p>\n We understand the rules of private aviation.<\/strong> Charter Operators are required to adhere to certain rules when it comes to aircraft safety, types of cargo, pilot experience, and US Customs requirements.\u00a0 Our vendors are all pre-approved and vetted through a third-party airline audit, so you can book a private jet charter flight with peace of mind.<\/p>\n We have flexibility.<\/strong> Air charter brokers work for you, not an airline. If your travel plans need to change, or if an aircraft is unavailable, your private flight advisor can usually find an immediate work-around. If you’ve booked a flight without a broker, you may not have any options if your circumstances change, and have to forfeit your flight.<\/p>\n We’re not beholden to certain aircraft.<\/strong> We don’t have any financial obligations to aircraft owners, so there is no pressure to drive revenue to a particular aircraft. Instead, we’re able to recommend the right aircraft for each and every mission we book.<\/p>\n We focus on client safety.<\/strong> We personally vet every aircraft provider we work with for its operational history, financial health and service experience. This allows us to provide the safest, most service-centric travel experience to our clients.<\/p>\n We provide charter options.<\/strong> Since we aren’t limited to the aircraft in our fleet, we’re able to provide our clients with the full market of available aircraft. This ensures our clients have the right plane at the right price every time a charter flight is booked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hiring an air charter broker will save you time, money and stress in these important ways: We build strong relationships.","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":69517,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2480,1401],"tags":[976],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61418"}],"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=61418"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61418\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":90516,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61418\/revisions\/90516"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69517"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61418"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61418"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61418"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
