My friend Jeff is a great guy but always has to learn things the hard way. He and I started out remodeling houses years ago and Jeff always bought cheap tools. Then, just when we needed to get a job done, one of his cheapy tools would break and we'd be down until he could get it replaced. It seemed like the downtime was always more expense than the savings he realized in the cheaper tool. The moral of that story is you get what you pay for.
So now Jeff is a successful executive and is still in learning mode when it comes to value. We were talking last week and he explained how he's recently gotten connected with an exclusive private jet leasing company and was saving lots of time and money as a result. Of course, Jeff had to learn this the hard way.
He explained how much time and aggravation he'd endured as he moved toward the private jet rental option. It was almost comical listening to him go on about the delays with commercial flights along with the long lines, the hassles involved with airport security, long check-in lines and the whole 'hurry up and wait' environment associated with routine air travel.
It wasn't until he'd entirely missed a critical flight and was forced to grab a private charter that he woke up to the great benefits in private jet travel. First, he simply waltzed through the private terminal apart from the crowded general boarding area and checked in. His flight was sitting there just waiting for his arrival. As soon as he boarded the plane just taxied to its position in the takeoff queue. Within five minutes he was airborne.
But there was more good news with private jet leasing. Even though he'd missed his original flight, he made it to his destination sooner because there were no pesky time-wasting stopovers. He was also more prepared for an important meeting because the private flight was set up with state-of-the art office space. And when he reached his destination he was well-rested due to the spacious accommodations aboard the flight.
After his first encounter with private jet leasing Jeff put the pencil to the benefits versus commercial flying, and just like the old days, came to the realization that it was far more cost-effective to use private jet rental services rather than commercial flying.
When it comes to private jet rental, Jeff is now a seasoned flyer and loving it. He realizes the ease of travel and time saved is well worth the extra expense. And if that isn't enough Jeff tells me that he's actually thinking of getting involved with a private jet membership club or perhaps even a private jet fractional ownership plan. Yep, Jeff seems to learn things the hard way. But when he gets it, he gets it right.
As a seasoned international traveler Billie Peck has had his share of interesting travel experiences. He's recently discovered the ease of flying private jets from a long time friend. Billie enjoys golf off the Gulf of Mexico in winter and skiing in The Alps year round. He's now reaching these destinations and others worldwide thanks to the convenience of flying private.
