Our aircraft include an onboard bathroom, two fully qualified pilots and a flight attendant. Private jet travel is different to airline travel, you'll be required to access the aircraft via a short walk across the tarmac and climb a small number of stairs at all airports. All flights will operate from private terminals (or direct departures from the tarmac) away from public terminal buildings.

Flights include gourmet food & beverages (including alcohol) suited for the length of flight.

Please note that seating onboard the aircraft is unassigned, you'll have an opportunity to try different seating locations on the jet and interact with other tour attendees throughout the tour.
