A wedding is one of those few events that bring together all the important people in our lives. And so, to organize one, we choose the most original and inspiring places, often located outside big city centers. This includes sandy beaches, luxury hotels, or even entire islands. But what to do if our chosen refuge does not have easy access by commercial aviation or car? Private jet charter for weddings has gradually emerged as a mainstream option among the wedding organizers. It allows you to get to the most remote places in the country and, depending on the aircraft, can become a viable alternative to commercial aviation.
Jet charter for weddings – practical implications
Among all services typically contracted for weddings, transportation plays a central role, giving a good start and end to the bride and groom’s celebrations. Hiring an air taxi service is a great choice for those who want to increase the satisfaction level of their guests and family:
- Practicality and comfort. As a groom, you want to arrive at your special event relaxed, in a more practical way and stress-free. The business aviation service is characterized by being an exceptionally comfortable and fast mode of transport, and ensures a better experience than other forms of transfer.
- Precision. Did you know that there are more than 5000 landing strips in the US? Brazil counts a further 2500 (as well as 800+ certified helipads). The general aviation sector enables landing anywhere in the country. It is also a preferred option for those who need to bring a larger group of family and acquaintances (19-150 people) to the most distant places.
- The “Wow” effect. Nothing guarantees a better start to your event than arriving in style. Grooms usually take the opportunity to take photos and record videos, giving a beautiful opening for wedding day filming.
One of the advantages of regulated business aviation is its safety ratings. Contrary to popular opinion, air taxi is one of the safest options in the transport industry.
How to choose a secure option
First, let’s highlight the advantages of hiring a Part 135-certified air carrier compared to a private pilot:
- Additional periodic maintenance requirements. Extra security checks and more advanced internal processes are performed to ensure even safer flights.
- For twin-plane airplane and helicopter flights, two pilots are required, typically with flight hours up to 2-3 times longer than a private pilot.
- Adequate infrastructure to accommodate passengers and ensure an adequate crew environment.
These factors result in the following fact: the safety rating of the best air taxi operators are impeccable and ensure a safe trip, free of unexpected events. In addition, companies like Flapper posses additional certifications, such as Wyvern, that ensure an even safer flight. You may request aircraft and operator details at any time, including maintenance, pilot training, and insurance plan information.
In accordance with our internal standards, Flapper does not offer flights in older aircraft or aircraft with a negative safety ratings, as per publicly available data. To demonstrate our dedication to the safety of the models, review the data of the weekly flight São Paulo – Rio de Janeiro, performed on the King Air B200GT model. There are more than 20 thousand flight hours of our operator, without any accident. In addition, the King Air B200GT is the only turboprop in the country approved to carry the President of the United States in an emergency.
Our team follows live weather conditions, always under the consultation of pilots and the operator team. We ensure that flights to North Coast airports depart visually, and we have contingency plans in case of possible cancellations. This includes transfer to other airports or exchange of aircraft.
Remember that hiring a non-ANAC approved aircraft is a violation of the law and may cause your guests disruption.
