Chartering a private jet to West Point s $airport code $airport name is the safest it has ever been. The National Transportation Safety Board has published many studies showing that private jet travel is safer than it was in other eras, such as the 1980s.

The accident rates goes down dramatically when you hire a professional crew, versus a business person who also has a pilot s license, manning his own plane. When hiring a private jet, make sure the pilot s credentials are up-to-date, that he is current on his required certifications and he is familiar with the plane being flown. Ask about the charter company s insurance coverage. An insurer who allows a company to take out a 50 million dollar policy has confidence in the track record and safety precautions taken by this business. After all, an insurance company is unlikely to insure a company with a poor track record because they do not want to pay out on any claims. Ask where the charter company has its maintenance operations performed.

Ask any question you like, without fear that you will look silly. A reputable charter will take the time to answer your questions and ease your mind. Over time, build a relationship with your charter company, and you will feel more safe and secure about chartered plane travel.
