Jet Charter Philadelphia arranges private travel for family offices across Philadelphia and the Main Line, where one office often covers several households, several schedules and a standing set of destinations.
The work is rarely one trip. It is a winter pattern to Florida, a summer pattern to Nantucket or the Vineyard, school runs at the start and end of term, and a board or property visit that lands somewhere in between. The value is in the office having one number to call rather than a new search each time.
What that looks like in practice
A single advisor holds the account, so you are not explaining the family’s preferences again on every booking. Aircraft preferences, catering, ground transport and the airports each household prefers stay on file.
Around Philadelphia that usually means Northeast Philadelphia (KPNE) for most trips, Chester County (KMQS) for the Great Valley and Malvern corridor, and Wings Field at Blue Bell for turboprop and piston trips closer in.
Ownership questions
If the office is considering buying an aircraft, we also handle aircraft sales, acquisition and management, including advice on the right base airport around Philadelphia and on placing an aircraft into the charter market to offset the cost of ownership.
We can also arrange non-emergency medical transport and pet travel where a household needs it.
Discretion is part of the job. Passenger names and itineraries go to the operator and the private terminal, and no further.
Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates; reports may be provided on request.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
Philadelphia-Specific Patterns We Plan Around
Winter is the one that catches people out, because de-icing takes time on the ramp before an aircraft can depart and a January departure can sit longer than the same trip in June. Summer brings thunderstorms that move through the corridor quickly and close airspace while they pass. Your advisor watches both ahead of your date and will call you before you call us.
