7 Packing Tips for Private Flights

These packing tips will have you perfectly prepared for your flight aboard a private jet.

Those familiar with the commercial aviation experience love the benefits private charter offers, especially the maximum flexibility for luggage. In this article, we’re providing tips and answering some of your most frequently asked questions about packing for a trip aboard a private jet.

How many bags can I bring aboard?

Tip 1: Luggage capacity is usually equivalent to one suitcase and one carry-on item per passenger, depending on the number of passengers. As many charter trips carry fewer than the maximum number of passengers, you’ll usually be able to bring more.

What’s the best type of luggage to use?

Tip 2: softer bags are often easier to load than hardshell cases, so you can carry more luggage when you pack in soft bags.

Do I have to check my bags?

Tip 3: For those unfamiliar with the private flying experience, you’ll love how quick and easy you can board the flight. When you arrive at the private jet terminal, you’ll be able to go from car to cabin in just a few moments while aviation professionals load your luggage directly on the plane. With exclusive access to the private jet terminal, you’ll avoid long security lines entirely — no more removing shoes, emptying pockets, and pulling computers out of bags. Plus, you’ll never have to endure those embarrassing full-body scans and pat-downs.

What are the baggage fees?

Tip 4: Your private charter flight is all-inclusive; there are never extra fees for over-weight or checked baggage. That means you’ll never have to weigh then re-pack a bag in front of a crowd. So go ahead – buy the extra souvenirs.

Can I bring my odd-shaped items like sports equipment and instruments?

How soon after landing can I retrieve my luggage?

After you land, your bags are simply unloaded from the cargo space and given to you. Tip 6: You’ll never have to wait for your luggage to circle the crowded baggage claim carousel. This is hassle-free flying!
