Re: Where can I go to hire a pilot for a private jet?
First, let's talk about the different types of private jet services that are available. There are three main categories: Light Jets, Mid-size Jets and Super-midsize Jets. Light Jets are typically single-pilot aircraft with seating for up to 8 passengers. They are the most popular choice for companies looking for an economical and efficient way to transport executives or groups of people on shorter trips. Mid-size Jets have seating for 9-12 passengers and can fly longer distances than light jets at higher speeds. Super-midsize Jets are also known as large cabin jets because they have more space than midsize aircraft and offer more amenities for passengers including larger galleys and lavatories, even in economy class seating configurations. These aircraft can fly from 500 nautical miles to over 4000 nautical miles nonstop depending on the range capability of the specific model being used. The second thing you need to consider is how much time you want to spend in the air versus on the ground at each leg of your trip? If you're traveling domestically between two cities that aren't too far apart (say under 600 miles) then a light jet would be.
