Recently, the Associated Press reported that little planes connecting the country’s small cities to the rest of the world are slowly being phased out due to the high cost of fuel. This trend adds to the many reasons private jet travel for business and pleasure has seen steady growth over the last few years.

The story indicates Delta, United Continental, and many other large airlines are expected to ground, dump and sell hundreds of smaller 50 seat or less jets in the next few years. This is a huge loss to many smaller cities that rely on these jets – they’ll be left with far fewer flights or no flights at all.

The Airport Council International reports that 27 small airports in the continental United States have lost service from name commercial airlines in the last two years.  And more shutdowns are expected. Travelers in these cities that have lost airline service are forced to drive to larger cities, or take buses to larger airports. This is a time consuming and stressful situation for travelers.

Why Choose Private Jet Charter?

Here are some of many reasons private jet charter is growing:

Thousands of Airport Choices

Private jet charter flights get you where you want to go, when you want to go.  Newport has access to over 4,000 aircrafts and helicopters in over 6,000 airports worldwide. Newport Jets can provide customers with exclusive security and adheres to the top industry standards in security requirements.

Speed

Private jet charter airplanes are much smaller than regular airplanes which allow the plane to fly faster than other larger airplanes.

No Airport Hassles

Airports these days can be a mess with crowds, long lines, and enhanced security checks. Security has been enhanced over the last years, with even more stringent checks appearing in the days following the raid on Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. TSA has added more searches and heightened security for commercial air travel.  There are longer security lines and waiting times for most passengers flying out of major airports.

With private jet charter travel you can skip the hassles as there are no long lines for security checks, baggage or delayed flights.

Your Time is Valuable

In today’s world time is money.  Private jet charter flights are efficient, fast and provide enhanced security for passengers.

At Newport Jets, we specialize in private jet flights for our customers; we know that no two trips are alike. International or domestic, one-way or multi-stop, we will create a solution tailored to fit any private jet travel need.

At a time when financial flexibility matters more than ever, our private flight jet charter program continues to be an outstanding, completely pay as you go solution for private air travel. Whether you need only one trip or many, there is no commitment and no upfront cost or other fees.

With Newport Jets Charter you choose private jet make and model for each trip, ensuring you always get the exact private jet you want for each private flight.

Breaking News:  Newports Jets CEO Alex Resnik talks about his jet charter company’s support of Art Basel Miami and the growth of Newport Jets in the newspaper Miami Today.  The article can be found here.

Globe’s private jets swoop in for Art Basel Miami Beach

By Rachel Tannenbaum
   Private jets are the ultimate symbol of opulence and luxury for many, and with Art Basel Miami Beach and the holiday high season, private jets serving Miami are fueling up for trips around the world and back.
   ”We are very busy this time of year with Art Basel,” said Andres F. Arboleda, managing partner of Privé Jets.
   ”People come from Europe, South America, all over the world,” Mr. Arboleda said. “It is a great way to promote international tourism.”
   Although NetJet, which is sponsoring the 10th anniversary of Art Basel Miami Beach, does a large amount of business during Art Basel, the company also does well year round. NetJet flew more than 5,000 flights in and out of Miami in the past year, said Elizabeth Wise, manager of public relations.
   ”Miami is one of NetJets’ top ten domestic destinations,” Ms. Wise said.
   Like Art Basel, the holidays are a time when there’s more business, Mr. Arboleda said.
   ”During the holidays, New Yorkers are coming to Miami to get out of the cold, as well as Europeans,” Mr. Arboleda said. “We get quite busy.”
   Although Privé Jets gets lots of booking in advanced and last minute, he said, many wait to book privately until commercial flights are filled.
   ”Last-minute booking isn’t an issue. It happens a lot with bad weather,” Mr. Arboleda said. “Sometimes flights are canceled, and we will drive people to different airports and fly them where they need to go.”
   South Florida is a different market because it doesn’t get as cold as other locales, Mr. Arboleda said. Privé Jets is a true global provider, he said, not just for South Florida.
   ”Snowbirds leave Miami and vice versa,” he said. “It offers a lot of international tourism.”
   Alex Reznik, CEO of NewportJets, said business has taken off a bit since last year, but since the company is based in New York an issue is that people are going straight from Europe to Miami, then to the Bahamas and different islands.
   ”Miami and Fort Lauderdale are two major connections to travel to the islands, South America, really anywhere,” Mr. Reznik said.
   Between the meltdown of the mortgage market and troubles with the financial market in Europe, Mr. Reznik said, it has hurt business.
   ”We are taking things one week to another. Things might get better,” Mr. Reznik said. “We are hopeful that it will pick up.”
   NewportJet is a full-service private jet service unlike other services, Mr. Reznik said, because it offers a pay-and-go service.
   ”Prices vary from trips, times and demands of the clients,” Mr. Reznik said. “We cater to the needs of the clients at the time, and whatever it might be, we try to please them.”

Corporate travelers have many flight options when planning their travel itineraries. But for a growing number of companies who fly many executives to a wide variety of destinations, private jet charter is their number one business travel choice.

Sure, there are still companies who invest in purchasing their own private jet. For some, it is a good choice and worth the costs. However, a huge number of organizations are finding a jet purchase does not fit their needs in our global economy with numerous travel requirements.  For these companies, a close evaluation of the initial costs to purchase the aircraft, monthly upkeep, maintenance, flight crew, and storing the plane are not cost efficient.

Time is Money for Business Jet Travelers

The trend in business travel is private jet charter travel. A private jet charter company like Newport Jets handles all the business travel needs for the company. They schedule flights, help choose the jet charter aircraft, offer concierge services, provide food and beverage choices, equipment needs, and filing the flight plan.

Newport Jets works quickly, even at the last minute, to fulfill all business and flight needs for each and every corporate business travel trip. Executives can run a meeting in flight, work in privacy, and with full confidentiality.  The professional private jet charter team at Newport Jets is committed to your needs, your schedule, and your time.

Business travelers will find a full array of in-flight services to customize their private jet charter experience – including limo service, restaurant/hotel reservations, in flight business needs and equipment, and customized menus.

No Airport Delays and Hassles

Since time is money, another big reason corporate private jet charter travel is growing is there are no airport hassles with delays, baggage claim, or long security lines to deal with.  Business travelers drive up to the plane, board the plane and take off immediately.  The flight crew takes over and sees to each passenger every need throughout the flight, and will even arrange for ground transportation upon landing.  Each passenger is pampered, comfortable and rested upon arrival.

Private Jet Flight Safety

Newport Jets offers the most comprehensive security and safety in the industry.  The company is a member on good standing of ARG/US®, Wyvern®, NATA®, and NATA First®. Statistically flying is one of the safest modes of travel. Newport Jets takes safety to a whole new level.

For business travelers there is one name in jet charter that is relied upon time and again to meet corporate travel needs. That name is Cessna. With its light jet models and comfortable cabins Cessna private jets deliver the ultimate in business travel comfort and convenience.

Though for travelers familiar with the brand it may seem like they have formula for business travel comfort down but Cessna continually strives to improve its line of private jets, tweaking and adjusting and constantly raising the bar.

Introducing the Cessna Citation M2

That’s why even though the Cessna Citation line of business jets have long met the private jet needs of corporations the world over, the company recently announced its latest offering: the light business jet, Citation M2. According to Cessna the jet fills the gap between the Citation Mustang and the Citation CJ family.

The newest addition to the Cessna Citation family adds yet another choice for clients looking for private jet options. With features like a GarminG3000 avionics and an engine similar to the Citation CJ series, the Citation M2 combines the familiar with the cutting edge. An all-new cabin design promises to wow with room for two crew members and six passengers.

The latest Cessna private jet is big news for business travelers and private jet charter companies but they’ll have to wait. Though excitement is building about the release of this new private jet, most people will have to wait anxiously to experience it.

The Citation M2 will have its initial flight in the first half of 2012 followed by FAA certification in the first half of 2013. Alas, deliveries won’t take place until the second half of 2013.

There was a recent sneak peak of the new aircraft. A mockup of the cabin was on display at Cessna’s exhibit in the Las Vegas Convention Center during the 64^th NBAA Annual meeting and Convention in October.

The Citation M2 will soon join the family of private jets that currently includes the Citation X, Citation Sovereign, Citation X LS+, Citation CJ4, Citation CJ3, Citation CJ2+, Citation Mustang and the Citation CJ1+.

 Whether you’re on the edge of your seat awaiting the release of the Citation M2 or you are content for now with Cessna’s current options, you know that private jet travel is the way to go. Newport Jets realizes that too and strives to make its private jet charter experience the best of its kind for business travelers.

Private jet charter is increasingly becoming the preferred option for business travelers because it puts the traveler in control. Travelers can avoid the long lines at airports, there are no baggage fees and delays are nearly never necessary. There are no schedules to adhere to but your own and you get to fly in quiet comfort. It’s nearly unbeatable. Discover all the reasons to fly private jet charter by visiting the Newport Jets at www.newportjets.com

Las Vegas can be a lot of things but one thing it definitely is, is exciting. People from all over the world come to Las Vegas to experience a never-ending evening filled with experiences that have never and will never be experienced anywhere else.

Certainly, there is something for everyone. If you want to see a world class show, spend a little cash or just indulge it’s all here. For a change of pace spend some time in Las Vegas for the holidays and enjoy some holiday lights of a different brilliance.

In November be sure to check out Rod Stewart.  Stewart makes his triumphant return to Las Vegas with his two-year engagement of performances of a culmination of Stewart’s hits from throughout the years at the Colosseum. Stewart will give his energetic performance through November. Reminisce with songs like “Forever Young,” “Reason to Believe,” and “Hot Legs.” For more classic music, 70′s legendary rock group, The Eagles are performing live in concert with tracks from their latest album, Long Road Out of Eden, along with classic hits at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

If you want to have a few laughs catch Jay Leno November 18 and 19 at Terry Fator Theatre in the Mirage. One of America’s most popular comedians, Leno will entertain you with a new perspective on day to day life.

Or settle in for the smooth R & B sounds of Charlie Wilson, former leader of the GAP Band. Wilson first met with success with GAP Band and a string of hits like “You Dropped a Bomb on Me” and “Party Train.” During the mid-80s Wilson went solo and since then his voice has influenced a whole new generation of R & B artists.

With December ushering in the holidays it doesn’t mean that Vegas slows down. David Spade will perform Dec. 2 and 3. The “Rules of Engagement” star and “Saturday Night Live” alum has returned to his stand-up comedy routine and will have you rolling in the aisles.

Then have some more laughs Dec. 26 and 27 with Jerry Seinfeld and his unique brand of observational humor. Seinfeld co-created the NBC pilot that would become the show “Seinfeld” in 1989. That show enjoyed nine successful years from 1990-1991 before calling it quits. Now Seinfeld has returned to his stand up roots and is ready to wrap your year up on a funny note.

Tired of the same out holiday traditions? Create a new one and cozy up beneath the bright lights of Las Vegas.
